Sure, art is important in much of our life. But let's face it, math takes a lot of progression and is important in nearly every career. Art, not so much. Sorry. I don't like writing (at all) but I still do it because it's important.

But when did this become an art vs math debate? Seriously. It's a preference, but not the point of this thread.

Re: Are you a geek?

I'd wouldn't be a nerd, but I am a computer master (geek means computer master).
What makes a geek is that person knows about computers and is intrested in Microsoft (or Apple or even IBM) technology.

Re: Are you a geek?

I can identify locomotive's, military airplane's (by it's silhouette), all kinds of guns (but I don't play CoD  wink  ), and I can name any battle in a given month of World War Two, or a statistic about an airplane off the top of my head.

I. Am. A geek......or an aspie. Take your pick.

I would like to think of it that way. By that logic, I'm a geek, and I like my classes, but I've made enimies with most of my school, so, I don't like school.

I am, and if you aren't shove off. If you are then why don't we discuss what makes a nerd/geek/whatever? Readysetgo

It depends on your definition of geek. If you use the term "geek" as in the person who is unpopular and kind of nerdy and smells like feet, then no, I am not a geek. I'm not popular, which is one geek characteristic, but I don't have any other ones.
To make a long story short:I'm not a geek, more of a punk.

Do you really enjoy math, or are you just good at it?
