One of four titles used to classify someone based on their technical and social skills. The other three titles are nerd, dork, and normie. The difference between the four titles can be easily shown in table form:
................ Technical ...... Social
Title ............ Skills ......... Skills
---------- ---------------- ------------
Normie ......... No ............. Yes
Geek ........... Yes ............. Yes
Nerd ............ Yes ............. No
Dork ............ No .............. No
Normie: A normal person. Blah.
Geek: An outwardly normal person who has taken the time to learn technical skills. Geeks have as normal a social life as anyone, and usually the only way to tell if someone is a geek is if they inform you of their skills.
Nerd: A socially awkward person who has learned technical skills due to the spare time they enjoy from being generally neglected. Their technical knowledge then leads normies to neglect them even further, leading to more development of their technical skills, more neglection, etc. This vicious cycle drives them even more into social oblivion.
Dork: A person who, although also socially awkward, doesn't have the intelligence to fill the void with technical pursuits, like a nerd, and is forced to do mindless activities. Almost always alone. Usually with an XBox. Like playing Halo. All day. Every day. Not even understanding how the Xbox is making the pretty pictures on the screen. Very sad.

If you met me at a party, you would have no idea that I enjoy finite element analysis-based inviscid flow modelling using computational fluid dynamics. That's because I'm a geek.

Get the Geckolocation mug.Gecko, A reptile inharited from the dinosaurs, part of the lizard family, the most common found gecko in a house would be a Leopard Gecko, Leopard Geckos get their name from their skin, they have the leopard style on their rough skin. Like most geckos they keep their food instead of releasing it, infact you would rarely see a gecko have wast in their cage. Geckos have eyes sorta between the side of their head and where people have their eyes, they are placed that make them face streight. Thank you for reading my definition, this is my first one so bare with me.
Son: Dad I want a pet, not like a dog or cat but something diffrent. Dad: How about a lizard? Son: Well is there anything else? Dad: Well, what about a gecko?
