Not that I needed further proof of my lame social status but...
Oh man. I'm doomed. Nerd's annonymous meetings, here I come.
*raises hand*
"Hi... Um, my name is Adam, and I'm a nerd"
Group: "Hello Adam"
0% scored higher (more nerdy), 0% scored the same, and 100% scored lower (less nerdy).
I should have stayed away, but I just couldn't help myself. Sigh...

PS: I can't help but point out that I'm the only one so far that correctly formatted the nerd score picture in my post so that it actually takes you to the test page like it's supposed to.

PS, I cant help but notice that you are NOT the BOFH you think you are!
PS, PS, pretty decent chance that I possibly got the job of installing wireless mics on college cheerleaders.
BOFH was never my career goal. I never had the "jerk" gene implanted. (Tried once, but it didn't take!) But I've sure met more than a few IT folks that had the gene...
In retrospect it's probably a good thing I never got into IT. I probably would have sold my soul. (Then again, dealing with users tends to make one cynical anyway...) I like it better the way things are now.
As for the test, I think most Navy Nuc's would have done well on it, as would anyone that has read Carl Sagan's "Cosmos". (At least they'd have a fighting chance of identifying the portraits.) As for the computer related questions, they were pretty simplistic imo. Even the chemistry was easy. (Mn? Come on! Should have asked what the symbol for Tungsten was! Hint: there's no "T" in it!)
Tried to call you last night, BTW. Things are going well. May need back surgery after all , but it's all good. Insurance max cash-out-of-pocket limit has already been reached, so as long as they cut me before December 31st, I'm golden!
Spoke w/ your Mom last night, and she said that you had a job offer that sounded good. Didn't know it involved cheerleaders though! (rowr!) Hope it pans out for you buddy... Keep us informed!
