Geekier than thou, and I answered honestly even when I could have easily inflated my score ( Long quiz results page )

The Deviant Geek
You answered 83% of the questions as a geek truly would.
You're a geek and you know it. You've got all sorts of fringe hobbies
and socially unacceptable tendencies. Chances are, whenever possible,
you hate to be grouped with other people and sometimes go out of your
way just to be different.

You're smart too. You're more willing to depend on your own
brainpower to solve problems, instead of relying on others to pull you
through life. You probably read a lot, and generally enjoy learning new
things.

So what's it all mean? You may be considered by some to be
uncool, but you probably don't care either. In social situations you
may be either slightly passive or slightly loud (geeks always fall into
the extremes).
In a nutshell, you answered enough questions correctly supporting a
geek philosophy to be considered a more potent geek than 60% of the
population.

The Simple Geek
You answered 66% of the questions as a geek truly would.

You don't seem to sway in either direction, however you still seem to have some latent geek attributes within you. Maybe you're interested in computers but not a gamer? Maybe you've got geek hobbies but none of the awkward social tendencies. You may be slightly geekier than you thought and in denial!

The simple geek usually has various quirks that friends may make fun of, but in general can be considered a fairly normal person. Your geek attributes make you less likely to conform to society. The popular kids don't hate you but the geeks don't either, so it's a respectable demographic.

In a nutshell, you answered enough questions with geek tendencies and enough questions without geek tendencies that it's difficult to pinpoint your exact alignment.

So I'm here in Seattle visiting my parents and (I would consider myself overly lucky) had the chance to visit Kim and Isaac as well.

While enjoying all sorts of good food and good times with them Kim brings up, "Oh, have you had a chance to look at Brad's livejournal?"

To this I thought for a moment. "I don't believe I have."

So I fixed that.

I figured, since I'm posting on an entry about the True Geek Test, I might as well give it a shot. Sad thing is somewhere along the way it did something odd to poor lil' Firefox and now, even though I closed out that tab, it still says that page is loading so I was fortunate enough to not only be forced to close Firefox, but I had to find and kill the process. So I started again. This time I actually received the quality feedback asking me to help analyse why it crashed. And thus I broke down and tried iexplore.exe, which I hate to admit worked, but it did.

So here I am:
