Just for clarification, the general sense is that:

Nerd - A person with above average intelligence but severely lacking in social skills.

Geek - A person with average intelligence or above and relatively normal social skills but an unusually focused interest in technology, mathematics, science, or otherwise overlooked interests in the general society.



That means all you pi day guys are geeks.
It is given that I am a geek... The question was whether I was a nerd... According to some on my team, I have social skills, only classifying me as a geek....

It's unfortunate that pi day is almost over.
