The word geek is a slang term, noting individuals as "One who is perceived to be overly obsessed with one or more things including those of intellectuality, electronics, etc." A person with a devotion to something in a way that places him or her outside the mainstream. This could be due to the intensity, depth, or subject of their interest. This definition is very broad but because many of these interests have mainstream endorsement and acceptance, the inclusion of some genres as "geeky" is heavily debated. Persons have been labeled as or chosen to identify asphysics geeks, mathematics geeks, engineering geeks, sci-fi geeks, computer geeks, various science geeks, movie and film geeks (cinephile), comic book geeks, theater geeks, history geeks,music geeks, art geeks, philosophy geeks, literature geeks, historical reenactment geeks, 2012 geeks, video game geeks, and roleplay geeks.(2)
These are a couple of my favorite definitions. This blogs is a representation of my interest and obsessions. I have many "geeky" passions. Examples I am going to school for programming, software engineering. I love art and music. I have a steady collection of comics and video games. You can see where I'm going with this. If you have a few geeky interest yourself, keep checking in and i might just keep you somewhat entertained.
