I got 16%. The only question that surprised me was do you like popping bubble wrap? Come on who doesn't like popping bubble wrap?

[richy rich]

i got 12% so we arnt far apart Mr c

[bradc]

I think the thing that saved me was the fact I've never been a star trek fan, or been into action figures :)

Do you like popping bubble wrap though?

[richy rich]

yes i do:pimp2:

[Nick VR4]

26% /help

[richy rich]

calling K i bet your above 50%/haz

[Wodjno]

12% here:vulcan:

[richy rich]

snap

[Funkstar]

Just over a quarter white nerd.

[I-S]

I appear to have moved into the lead (or last place, depending on how you look at it) with 36%.

And I'm not into action figures or star trek. :embarasse

[Nutter_John]

Thank god only 22%

[richy rich]

you should be higher than that john /haz

[Nutter_John]

ok ok I lied a little :D - no honest i didn't

[The Vee]

Maybe too low!! My age? but got 8%.
Strangely though, just spent 10 mins popping some rather large bubble wrap just before I saw this thread/help /pan

Didn't even know what some of the questions were about!!

[Alex]

12% for me - but does it count if you answer 'No' for every question you don't understand (in my case most of them)? :thinking:

[richy rich]

answerd no to every thing and got 0%

[Kieran]

/grr /pan

Shaddap Richy!

Just doing the test now - and i've been drinking, which means I'll be more honest than is perhaps good for me!! /help :5shots:

[Kieran]

Well, I initially got 30%, then my geekiness kicked in, and I watched the 'white and nerdy' video referenced in question one, and then looked on Wikipedia to find out who MC Escher was - and bumped my score up! :embarasse

But it gets worse.... I then wondered what a renaissance fair is - so off to Google I went again! :embarasse And found out. And then I thought - "Hmm! I'd try anything once!!" :embarasse :embarasse

So, my baseline nerdiness is 30%
My adjusted Nerdiness, given what I did after doing the survey and therefore being able to answer 'yes' to two more questions afterwards is 34%.

And the fact that I've just typed another very wordy reply to you lot at the risk of wanton and gratuitious ridicule, perhaps suggests the score should be higher still?!?! :embarasse :embarasse

:book: :smart: :smart: /pan

i think you should have 16% added for the geeky reply/haz

[Alex]

That's very generous of you. The test is obviously faulty if it puts K at anything less than 94%! I should know - I see daily evidence :evilgrin:

Sorry, your secret's out (if it ever was a secret) :iloveyou:

got 10% as well :S

[g6acb]

oh ohhh... races into 1st (or last) place - depending on how you view it -

40 %.....

never seen the video thing and have no idea who MC whoishisface is and dont really like star trek?????

I think i am just being picked on 'cause I was forced into chess team at school and Uni involved Pascal programming.....

... I do however take my Bubble Wrap popping very seriously..... to the extent of laying 30 feet of it on the office floor and 'riding' a wheely chair over the lot:afro:

Fancy joining me in a game of 'Point and snigger at the Club Geek', Isaac?! /Devil5 /haz

[I-S]

I would have overtaken him if one of the questions had been "Have you ever attempted to organise an office chair race?"...

If I were to tell you I haven't washed my car since August would that knock a couple of % off????

..... it goes much deeper than that though....

Pro-Celebrity International Pallet Truck racing is a regular event at my work in the warehouse...

as is ''who can pop the longest wheeley in the 'politicaly correctness gone mad' provided wheelchair''

[I-S]

You know.... you actually win! Now I shall return to salivating about my new laptop.

[KiwiTT]

I'm an IT Manager, White and officially

Phew.... the heats off!!!!

Good Grief Richard - Uber Nerd!:speechles

[KiwiTT]

Good Grief Richard - Uber Nerd!:speechles:embarasse I remember considering getting a pocket protector when I started out in my IT career 20 years ago..:5shots: I promise I never wore one though.

[bradc]

I don't even know wtf a pocket protector is - does it look and function like a condom for your pocket?

[WildCards]

18%


...I quite like Star Trek unfortunately.

[Lillywotsername]

16% for me..... hmmmmmm

[VR-04-TT]

8% Nerdy for me!

But I'm not cool either...so what does that make me? :thinking:

[White Lightning]

12% for me :2thumbsup

... and that's only because I've got a collection of KISS action figures /help

[colVR4]

20% and I don't have any action figures, I'm not a big star trek fan and I don't drink tea...no fair!!

[K9NG]

6% for me :Mr-T: And I love to pop bubble wrap..
