The kids in high school who are considered the losers.
Ironically, those "losers" will be the bosses of the cool kids in high school, if those cool kids ever reach the same intelligence level as the once geeks(possibly not).

Call them what you want, geeks are the ones that will succeed in life, while the cool kid in high school that did drugs will do just that for the rest of his shitty life.

The term "geek" originally referred to the carnival performers whose act consisted of biting the heads off chickens and eating glass. Over time it came to be applied to anyone who got paid to do work considered odd or bizarre by mainstream society.
The term now enjoys a special status within the technical community, particularly among particularly knowledgable computer programmers. To identify oneself as a "geek" indicates a recognition that most people still consider programming computers to be a bizarre act, along with a certain fierce satisfaction in being very good at their inglorious profession.
That most software geeks now easily earn twice as much as the average laborer just sweetens their defiant embrace of the term.
Note: Unlike the word "nerd," which is always pejorative, "geek" often carries a positive connotation when used by one of the group. The use of the term by outsiders is considered insulting.

When you're so fucked up that time itself has no meaning at all. Looking for the right candybar at Walgreens can take hours when you're geeking. You can spend a day trying to fold some origami model, or solve a math problem, or read a single paragraph.
Also related to tweaking.
When tweaking AND geeking, this time contraction is combined with a feverish hurry and awareness of your own "meth stench," not to mention a belief that what you are doing is of the utmost importance, and is not to be disturbed by anyone.

For starters geeks are not wannabe nerds, and anybody who say they are, are fucktards.
They are very intelligent in one or more areas. Not necessarily computers. You could be a chess geek and have never used a computer.
Geeks are usually quite weak physically but make up for it in their superior mental capability.
Do not try and insult a geek, as one they do not care. and two they will always have either a good comeback or someway to totally annihilate your insult with some form of explanation. They do have a social life (most of them anyway) they can be awesome at gaming and still have a girlfriend. Just like if a chav considers himself to have a social life but he is still good at bmxing (innit).
