What do grades have to do with socializing? Also, we all socialize, it's our hobbies that make us "nerds," "geeks," or whatever. At least that's how I see it.

Please #define NERD for me, my compiler doesn't know what it means.
I had the same problem last week, just import java.lang.nerd and you're golden.

I'm definitely an intellectual, but I don't really have any obsessions beyond a controllable case of neophilia and while I don't often go out of my way to seek people out, I make friends easily and am pretty good at getting along with people.

So I'd be most naturally inclined to go with geek, rather than nerd, but geeks are generally really good at something... and I'm not. :P

So, boo! Down with labels!

I misread that as something else and did a literal double take.

Quote from: Wikipedia
Nerd is a term that refers to a person who avidly pursues intellectual activities, technical or scientific endeavors, esoteric knowledge, or other obscure interests, rather than engaging in more social or conventional activities. It often carries a derogatory connotation or stereotype. The nerd may be awkward, shy and unattractive.[1] Therefore, a nerd is often excluded from physical activity and considered a loner by peers, or will tend to associate with like-minded people.

By this definition, yes. Especially the scientific and esoteric knowledge.
