Historically, a geek was a circus person whose role in the side-show was to bite off chicken's heads or perform other bizarre feats.

Although we sometimes do some bizarre feats with computers, they don't taste like chicken!

um weren't they called freaks not geeks?

I wonder if Atomic Rooster tastes like chicken? btw, do you wear a contact??

Not freak, though that would also classify someone biting chicken heads and such.

Check it out in the dictionary:

Main Entry: geek
Pronunciation: 'gEk
Function: noun
Etymology: probably from English dialect geek, geck fool, from Low German geck, from Middle Low German
Date: 1914
1 : a carnival performer often billed as a wild man whose act usually includes biting the head off a live chicken or snake
2 : a person often of an intellectual bent who is disapproved of

Savant,

"Techomese" is a "collective noun"; we TechIMOoanolianoids DO NOT practice Collectivism at TechIM !

Anyone You Chose to Chose is temprarily enjoying a narrow lead --but if da TecHIMoans stop to consider, or even if TecmOLoids stop to think about it, or if da TecHMoids cogitate a second --they will realize that you cannot have a name that is a NON-name.....non-specific, conventional, and consensually validated.

Which will ERASE this narrow lead !

Geeks is good.

Let the chips fall where they may. If the shoe fits wear it. Go surfin' if the waves are good. (Add your suitable cliche' HERE ).
