geek out 

The act of becoming emotionally and physically aroused by the sight or the thought of a technicality of a certain topic of major interest.

It resembles an "orgasm of the mind".

Geeking out is not a universal feeling. As a result, if one person in a group geeks out, everyone else is wondering in curiosity what is wrong with that person.
