The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

Sadly, I doubt it ...lol

Watch it. Not all of us are stereotypical geeks.

Hello!

Good bye!

Just stopping into avatar Aeson....Grecian Wizard Avatar...

Just remember, as far as polymorph other is concerned, sheep ARE considered a small harmless animal...

Nice. Thank you.

I tried to upload it as an avatar and it said it was too big. I think it needs to be under 500kb or some such.

The larger one works as an avatar at CM.

*hopes some male in the hive knows enough about female anatomy to catch said reference.

And some of us are stereotypical geeks. And therefore know EXACTLY to what you're referring.

Why are nerds better lovers than jocks? Because jocks only ever think about sports. All nerds think about is sex.

Button down shirt and a pocket full of pens
Revenge of the nerds, NERDS, revenge of the nerds
NERDS NERDS NERDS

This under hood comment is why we need to move the hive to a more open place. Bront has Bront.org. Most of us are already members there. We can go there and talk about what's under the hood all we want.

I prefer the term geek to nerd. I am not a nerd. My husband isn't one either. Of course, it depends on the definition of geek that you go with too. We also definitely aren't carnies.

And I completely agree BTW.

Yeah, everyone has different definitions they operate by. I consider myself a nerd first and foremost.

My personal distinction follows something like this:

Geeks have a particular expertise or knowledge of a single field, generally of a science or popular culture icon. Thus one can be a computer geek, a Star Trek geek, a Star Wars geek, etc.

Nerds are classified by a heightened general intellect and a lack of interpersonal skills.

Being one hardly disqualifies one from the other, and a single person could embody multiple geekdoms. So it falls to each person to choose which classification best suits them. I enjoy my pop culture, but I tend to be diverse in my tastes and lack the depth of knowledge shared by those truly devoted to a single fandom. But I am an engineer who suffers from nausea at the mere thought of public speaking. Thus, I am nerd, hear me roar.

Morning, Hive. I the only one up and moving at this hour?

Gimme a sec, will alter the DPI and compression...

Only a woman could do this. A guy I worked for was a body builder and in very nice shape. He was introduced to his sister's friend. The friend went up and lifted his shirt saying"Let's see what's under the hood" She ran her hand over his six pack.

I get the reference.

Wrong hood.

The little man in the canoe wears it....

I was telling a story. I know which hood they were talking about. I'm willing to produce pictures to illustrate the fact I know what it is but I can't.
