I'm just behind Steve Jobs?! at 25.48%.

If you panic at question 12, well . . .

[XanaDUer]

1. Crap.

I'm a nerd.

Tho' my SO makes me go to Radio Shack.

[JohnKleeb]

9. I said nothing about radio shack though

[XanaDUer]

17. It's better than it used to be

every week, we were in Radio Shack. There was a RS outlet store, but it closed, mercifully.

2. 34% Not too bad

I thought it would be a lot worse. I guess I'm a nerd in different ways. I have the ferrets, but I'm not really into computers or Star Trek that much. I was co-captain of the Scholastic Bowl team in high school, though.

[populistmom]

3. It's says I'm a nerd!

I consider myself more of a Nadia though (as in American Pie- lover of male nerds). My husband told me once I'm just a wanna be nerd. :(

[eileen_d]

4. This is the first poll

In which being shoved into a locker was an advantage ;) That happened to me, but it was just because I was short.

I got 94.01% but I don't think it accurately measured my nerdiness - I'm not a science or Star Trek nerd, just a computer one.

10. If you were able to get by #12, you are still save-able.

[Wonk]

5. Would you believe 57.39%?

Come to think of it, yeah, most of you probably would believe that about me. It's not like I try all that hard to hide it...

[Spider Jerusalem]

6. I'm pretty nerdy.

87.58%. More than Carl Sagan, but less than Gandhi.

[gyopsy]

7. I'm a nerd...

would I be posting on DU at 12:15 on a Saturday night if I weren't?

Think about it! :-)

Although my results are only 8.35%

[blondeatlast]

12. It's only 9 PM in AZ--hubby and kid are putting together a toy--

I'm UPSTAIRS and I'm not going down.

[gyopsy]

13. Oh yeah...

well if I were a nerd I'd be able to realize the difference in time zones without having to be reminded so there you go.

[blondeatlast]

14. Glad I could be of help! I count on my fingers.

[JohnKleeb]

8. how did this happen

339 72.59%
The ass was right, my brother, :cry: I am a nerd

[XanaDUer]

11. You're in good company, JK!

:pals:

[JohnKleeb]

30. I guess but I am a nerd

:cry: lol its ok

[jab105]

15. 81.16%!!

YIKES!!

But, no on question 12, yeah, there's hope!

[blondeatlast]

16. Keep the faith, baby!

[Deja Q]

27. Hey, I was 79.02% and I had to say YES to Q12...

How can you be more of a nerd than me, without having to resort to getting a trekkie costume?!?! :pout:

[GAspnes]

18. ooops.

[Dudley_DUright]

19. Total Science Nerd Here

I scored higher than Dilbert! The question about going to a party with all Math Ph.D.s made me laugh since most of the conference parties I go to are all Physics Ph.D.s (including yours truly) which everyone knows are even more nerdy than math Ph.D.s. :silly:

[unblock]

21. right you are!

math phds don't even use computers, they just need to prove an answer exists, they don't have to actually find it!

[unblock]

20. 106% and damn proud of it!

between gates and grodin.

[Don_G]

I'm better than Bill Gates.

[PittPoliSci]

24. i'm less of a nerd than James Dean.

Bah! I answered every question NO!

[Bossy Monkey]

25. Very funny, but uhhhhhhhhhhhh

189 40.47%

I mean, c'mon! I started a poll about state quarters today! I haven't watched anything on tv on purpose except for documentaries in about 3 years! Get me my blue running shoes, I'm ready for math professorhood! (Sorry, '80s reference; no doubt they wear New Balance or something now.)

[Dudley_DUright]

29. Actually I wear New Balance running shoes

to class every day. How did you know? :-)

[Deja Q]

26. As for question #12, ahem... And you don't want to know how nerdy I am

I just about did buy the Kirk movie era uniform. Except the outfitter didn't bother to specify what each goofy size designation meant. And at $300, I didn't want to be wrong.

But I would have bought it all the same. Very stylish, that outfit design...

Oh, I'm 79.02% nerdy, score of 369. I beat Ernie, ha ha ha!

Dunno how Duhbya can be at 110%, that's a lie. (Bush* must've told them himself then!)

[SmileyBoy]

28. 74.78 percent. Roughly the same as Bob Denver.

Hey there, little buddy...

[FloridaJudy]

31. Omigosh: 136%

Like I'm really surprised!

I *was* President of my High School Chess Club, collected slide-rules (hey! I'm probably one of the last people who still knows how to use the fool things), buy Neal Stephenson's novels in hard-back, and was once voted Most Likely to Have a Mad, Passionate Affair with a Physics Professor...

You mean Bill Gates *isn't* cute???

[leftist_rebel1569]

32. roughly 16% nerdy...

I thought I would get a lot more than that....:P

[Ivory_Tower]

33. Harumph...55.46%

I lost 25 points since I'm on a Windows machine right now...

But I have to commend you on your link -- I love Archie McPhee!!! I've been getting their catalog for at least 16 years now! I used to order from there regularly, but in a (mostly failed) attempt to simplify my life, I've cut back on the "things" and gave away a lot of my McPhee goodies. Maybe I should order another Punching Nun Puppet...then maybe my life will have meaning. :)
