Geek or nerd?
What's the diference between "geek" and "nerd"? Is there any or they are just diferent words for the same thing?
It's killing me not to know this  |

A nerd has an interest in something intellectual. Math would be an example. Geeks are passionate about things, too, but they are not usually intellectuals interests. For example, there are Star Wars geeks.

And I think the connotation of the words are slightly different
Nerds usually have more of a intellectual connoatation and geek more techy __________________
