I am thrice accursed, being a LotR geek, and anime geek and a band geek, lol.

But seriously why does the term geek or nerd seemed to be plastered to those who enjoy escaping the confines of reality through things like music, art, reading (especially that of fantasy or science fiction genre). I mean, aren't these the things tht enrich our culture and make it more beautiful and able to bear? I proudly bear the term geek, and even though I'm scorned for it. So in true geek fashion, i would just like to say...
