anotheranonI'm pretty sure the correct conjugation is I am eccentric, you are geeky, they are losers....
Remarkably incomplete, though - I mean, how do, say, SCA folk view their geekiness as related, to, say, Amateur Sci Fi artists who can't get breasts right? To read this chart you'd think they are of equal geekiness, but is that really so?
It gives me pause that everyone thinks they're better than furries. I mean, I don't get furrydom (furry-ness?), but I figure they're hurting no one, and are far less frightening than ~50 year old anime fans who don't [ahem] costume to body type....
Enough with this rating, I say! Geeks, embrace your geekiness! Write fanfic with a new fury! Game with greater passion! And one can never have too many replica swords (unless they take up space of operational swords)...
