So her boyfriend was making fun of me and calling me a computer geek because I got top marks in this assignment.
Friend's Bf: Haha you're such a computer geek (Or something like that)
Carina: No I'm not!!!
Friend's Bf: Yes you are
Friend (To her bf): Well, so what if she is a computer geek?
Carina: I'm NOT!
Friend's Bf: Yes you are
Friend: Well, it doesn't matter to me that you're a computer geek, there's nothing wrong with being a geek.
Carina and Friend's Bf: YES THERE IS!
This 'friend' happens to be really dim...has anyone read 'Tomorrow when the war began?' well, we had to read it for school and youknow it's invaded by some country? She thought that it was an extra terrestrial alien invasion... and she included it in her book report. |

.. Uh, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being called a computer geek. It's just another term for being very computer literate. it's a good thing. I don't think it's really anything to whinge about.
Asa for TMTWB, she probably hasn't read it properly. give her a chance. |

Yeah.. it's just that her boyfriend meant it as an insult and she agreed with him. That's what made me mad. Anyway, I see your point. |

She didn't really agree with him? Well, she did say you're a computer geek but she thought it wasn't a bad thing, she meant it positively. I love being a computer geek. Later you'll have it so much easier with, for example, finding a job than all those people who know nothing about it. :P |

^It's great being a computer geek when you need a job and all that. But when you're 13 years old, short and having to deal with jerks... it's not great. It's just a stereotype thing. |

That's true. But just remember that eventually you'll have advantage of it. ;) |

People around here use the term as an endearing thing... in fact men really find it a turn-on (at least, intelligent ones do- the dumber ones tend to not really have any appreciation or understanding). |

I would feel happy if someone calls me computer geek. But I guess it's not how you feel. I'm sorry then :( |

Basically, it is like this, Carina- you are what you are and it doesn't matter how people interperet it. If you use computers a lot and are good with them that is just something you do and if one person says 'wow you're good with computers' and another snorts and says 'gosh you're such a nerd' it is just what you are and what you do, so it just plainly does not matter.
It is just words.
Mannnndddeerrrr gosh I paid for the bresticles they are mine all mine and they're real becasue like we can see them ooookkkkaaayyyy stop judging me *huffy* Honestly I think the dumb ones are more turned on by themselves than anything else ; ) You notice how they always talk about what they're interested in and it's a very narrow pool? Like... 'Man hockey rules!' and it is just always... hockey... and beer. Somehow you're supposed to be 'all up on that', too, or else there's something wrong with YOU. I love how dumb guys don't ever consider THEY might be obnoxious if someone doesnt' like them! |

I'm a computer geek and damn proud of it. If people call you stuff like that you should totally laugh it off, and pretend you dont care. Just go along with it sarcasticly. I do all the time! Works for me. ;) |
