Suddenly almost everyone i know that wants to pass as being a &#8220;creative&#8221; person openly admits that he or she is a &#8220;geek&#8221;, or that he or she isn&#8217;t a normal person. So, for all you &#8220;geeks&#8221; or &#8220;abnormal&#8221; persons out there i present you here with my thoughts on the matter.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Cambridge Online Dictionary:<br \/><b>geek<\/b><br \/><i>noun<br \/>a person, especially a man, who is boring and not fashionable<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>nerd<\/b><br \/><i>noun<br \/>a person, especially a man, who is not attractive and awkward or socially embarrassing<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Well, so according to this, everyone that calls himself or herself a geek is a person that is boring and not fashionable, right? You got that right, a true geek does not follow any type of fashion trend, however, in the current days, being a geek is in itself a fashion trend. Can someone see the contradictions involved?<\/p>\n<p>People nowadays keep striving to be abnormal, in an attempt to be different. Well, the bad news is that, since everyone is doing exactly the same thing (boasting that one&#8217;s not normal), nobody&#8217;s being different.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s face it, you&#8217;re not going to be special just by posting pictures or comic strips advertising how &#8220;abnormal&#8221; you are. You&#8217;re special just because you&#8217;re alive, because you do something that YOU want instead of doing something that others want you to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is this?!
