Sort of a fun test, but some of the questions really offer no sensible answer for me ..my answer to the Carl Sagan question would be a simple "no," for example, which isn't offered as a choice ... apparently the nerd world is divided into people who read Carl Sagan and people who laugh at the word "bookshelves." I can't quite fathom the joke, if it is one.
ReplyDeleteAnother one that stood out: "group 4" in the "pick one" section contains nothing I have to begin with: I don't own a single movie T-Shirt, I don't drink beer, and I don't own a TV set. Lots of other questions are similarly skewed (and not in the fun way, where the result is a clever joke ...)
So, with that said, mine came out "Uber Cool Light-Weight Nerd," with:
Sci/Math: 20%
Tech/Comp: 7%
SciFi/Comic: 55%
Hist/Lit: 58%
Dumb/Dork: 8%
I'd have hoped to ping higher as a history nerd (which I consider myself) but since they lump it with literature (which I find tedious) I guess that score, at least, hits the mark :) I suspect my SciFi/Comic score is mostly based on knowing the Glen Larson answers ...
Sorry to inflict it on you both, but it seemed everybody in hobbyfan's gundam forum had one, so I took the test. The "read a book?LOL!1" tone of some of the questions irked me to no end, but I haven't grown out of the old + and - Geek Code, and hoped this would be amusing.
ReplyDeleteIn a related note, my word verification starts with "usux".
My title is "Uber Cool High Nerd".
ReplyDeleteThis was a fun test, but to silly to put on my blog.

A "Cool Nerd King", just like my cool brother-in-law. How surprising. :-)
Cool History / Lit Geek
ReplyDeleteI didn't write down the percentages.
I had the exact same objections as sjohn. Many times I was forced to pick an untrue answer because of supposedly humerous reasons.
