KLB Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Great article. I like the following definition it gave for "geek" it really sums up the term well: The term "geek" originally referred to the carnival performers whose act consisted of biting the heads off chickens and eating glass. Over time it came to be applied to anyone who got paid to do work considered odd or bizarre by mainstream society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KLB Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Well, yes, I did realize it is fake, but it still has a good definition of geek that a normal person could understand and it was really funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
