I used to be around 100% nerd in my younger days; but aging helped me go more towards 75/25 geek/nerd. Geek being the greater.

I think Geek and Nerd should be swapped. I think Geeks have a better 'Social Ineptitude' than Nerds. I'm a geek too btw!

The first thought that came to my head is:
"How long before someone creates a quiz that classifies people into different sections of this Venn diagram?"
I guess that puts me somewhere in the Dork/Dweeb/Nerd conjunction point, doesn't it? :P

I passed from Dweeb (teenager), through Nerd (twenties), to hard core Geek (present). I am happy to say I was never a Dork.

GEEK!!
GEEK!!
NERD all the way baby!!
NERD all the way baby!!
I am proud to say I am a Geek! As is my boyfriend. I have met loads of geeks who do have a very good level of social aptitude too, so I think this is about right.

I'm totally a Geek. My husband, however, is a total Nerd (although he wishes he were a geek).

geek always. sometimes nerd, too.
I'd put myself at Geek, with forays into Nerd in certain situations (I am completely lost when it comes to socializing in a sports related situation, which is why I am spending stupid bowl Sunday watching the Evil Dead trilogy with other non-football people).
I think I am a geek, for I have some social skills.
Geek trending towards nerd – i fit perfectly within my circle of friends and like to keep it that way :P
Probably geek, slowly shifting towards nerd :P

Geek/Nerd, more geek than nerd.
Nerd all the way, baby.
geekity geektiy geekgeekgeek!
sometimes leaning more towards full nerd than I'd like to admit… INTP – whatayagonnado?
Geeks are more socially inept than Nerds… find it weird that they got that wrong on this site. :S
Jock, you geeky little dweebs are in for it now!
Just kidding, Geek ofc, jocks cant spell.
Nerd, pretty close to a Dweeb.
Geek
Yep, I'm a nerd. No doubt about it. But I would switch Geek and Dork in the diagram. Just saying.
i'm a geek, guess everyone in high school was right.
Yep, Geek!
I am, according to this venn diagram, a massive geek with some nerd tendencies.
I'm squarely in the "Nerd" field. I am a Renaissance Woman.

Geek x10, but having boobs brings your social ineptitude down by, about, a thousand. Haha
Well, I'm an all out nerd.
Sadly I'm none of the above? How can that be? Intelligence I have, but I'm critically short on both "Obsession" and "Social Ineptitude." Here I thought I'd finally get an answer to my age old question and as it turns out, well I'm none of the above? Now I shall have to wonder off, largely unaffected, and continue on with my day. How very odd. :) I'm old, does that count? Maybe it's a statute of limitations kind of thing? Over a certain age you just can't muster passion in two of the require three categories?
Maybe you do hold a bit of 'obsession'. You're are thinking out aloud and writing it on here, questioning and talking to yourself and…. stewing over it. So I would suggest you are leaning toward Intelligent with a splash of obsession. There…. you belong :)
I'm a Geek, though possibly straying into nerd territory because I am occasionally not fantastic in the social department. ^_^''
Seems like I'm a geek, leaning a bit towards nerd.
I think this needs to be an alignment chart. Lawful Geek, Neutral Nerd, Chaotic Dweeb, etc.
Nerd all the way.
Social.. eptitiude (?) is for the weak :)
9% Nerd, 91% Geek !
I am probably a nerd. But I think that I am a pretty cool one…LOL Now of course my kids would take issue with that. But I know I am a nerd, because recently one of my kids was on a trip at Google and texted me to let me know that I would love it there because it's a "Nerd's Paradise"… So there you go…
