Just in Case my Nerdiness in in Question...

...this post should remove any doubt.


First, a comic from xkcd.com. I like Venn diagrams. Heck, I know that this thing is called a Venn diagram. Other evidence of my nerdiness: I self classify as a nerd in the intersection (See definition #5 and yes, I know I am violating nerd conduct by referencing urban dictionary rather than the OED. That this concerns me is further evidence of nerdiness.).





Next, I love this video by a bunch of librarians satirizing Lady Gaga's Poker Face. I alternate between laughing and feeling a tingle of organizational delight over the verse mentioning Boolean search parameters.




Finally, I actually took this quiz because I really wanted to know. I happened to find the results both amusing and accurate.








You Are a Question Mark




You seek knowledge and insight in every form possible. You love learning.

And while you know a lot, you don't act like a know it all. You're open to learning you're wrong.

You ask a lot of questions, collect a lot of data, and always dig deep to find out more.

You're naturally curious and inquisitive. You jump to ask a question when the opportunity arises.

Your friends see you as interesting, insightful, and thought provoking.

(But they're not always up for the intense inquisitions that you love!)

You excel in: Higher education

You get along best with: The Comma


What Punctuation Mark Are You?


To further intensify your fears I have procreated and 2 of my nerd spawn voluntarily categorized and labeled the DVD/video collection AND developed a sign out sheet for tracking when one has been borrowed or loaned out. Excuse me, I need to wipe my tears of pride.
