Heh...she's a computer science grad student. In that world, "geek" is a positive term, and something to be proud of being.

What Rosie said. I am Queen of Geeks. I was raised geek and I'm proud of it.

It's got a different meaning for those of us who are geek.

No, I just got this funny picture of two girls sitting in dead silence typing right next to each other.

And if they meet and marry FReepers.... I can picture them sitting right next to their future husbands FReeping... like my husband and I do ;~D

One of the members of the church that I serve said to me, "In case someone says something to you about this, I called you a geek the other day -- but I meant it in the good way."

Evidently, some people got offended and she tried to explain to them it was a compliment because I work on computers.

I still didn't quite get it, but it wasn't that big of a deal to me.

It is always a good thing. Now, "nerd" can be perjorative...

So, are you saying I should change my profile? I always prefered "nerd" because at least there is a Willy Wonka candy called that. There is no candy called "geek".

Not a "ladies man". You are a single pastor? Well, they would all be thrilled if you found a wife!

You have great opportunities. Retreats, etc.
