1. I confess that I am uncool.

That looks like so much fun to me!:headbang:

3. Uncool is the new cool!

:P

[laheina]

I like the way that you think. ;)

Forty-three is the new 42. (I learned that on my birthday. ;) )

6. They probably wouldn't have let me

into this one, either.

7. Too geeky for the geek prom? n/t

[Oeditpus Rex]

8. Not sufficiently proud of my geekness

Not back then, anyway. I fought it.

I was so naive... :cry:

[rucky]

9. that would have made you a nerd.

in case you were wondering what the difference is.

I was right there with ya.

[Oeditpus Rex]

10. Nah, I know the difference

I guess I was closer to being a nerd, what with being in two choirs and studying drafting. :blush:

But I was in denial. I tried so hard to be cool. But, alas, coolness eluded me. :cry:

11. No-one knows what the difference is

everyone has an opinion on what the difference between a geek and a nerd is, and no two people agree. :shrug:

On edit: the strict definition of a geek is a person in a circus who eats anything. I heard that the word "nerd" was invented by Dr. Seuss, which while I haven't seen confirmation of this myself, does ring true. In which case it would probably not mean anything at all. (He would probably have used it just because it rhymes with lots of things).

12. When I first saw that photo I thought it was Henry Waxman

and said- "Wow! How cool is that?!?!?"

[ScreamingMeemie]

13. "spastic fits of clumsy dancing..."

[Deja Q]
