I❤️the Geek

I've been reading these confessions online for a while now. Sometimes they are silly, sometimes amusing, sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes disturbing but almost always poingnant. The comments elicited also run the gamut from insightful to insulting. I just have to say that GeekNomad is, hands down, the best commenter by far. GN is smart & funny offerring salient arguments, amusing observations and real advice. I love that GN is here making this forum a better place. Thank you!

Geeknomad is the one writing these posts that are "praising his advice."

OP wants all to know that this was most definitely not some bs confession posted by GeekNomad. I am a female from the States that was lucky enough to have lived in BC for a while. Anyway, it's too bad you don't what he adds to this sphere. Of course, perhaps I appreciate his perspective because I have always been a "weirdy." I was raised to be the square peg & not conform so I don't trust most people's judgement. Keep it up GN. Ignore the haters!

From a nerd to a geek....

I also respect Geeknomads advice.

I tend to be a bit more cynical and judgmental realist at heart. But I mean well.

Apologies for spellingistskes. More proof this confession wasn't written by the Geek.

@Um and similar

Not the narcissist type.

Writing style is as distinctive as a fingerprint, so if you can't tell the diff by now, you're not really paying attention, just hating for the sake of it. This is not unusual here, but still, do try a little harder. Lazy hatred is contemptible.

Odds are, if MN hasn't driven me away, I'll probably stay for a while yet. Pretty sure I'm not her favorite person (comment threads do not lock and disable themselves).

A designer friend has a sign on his wall: "It's ok if not everybody gets it." If my content offended no one, it would not be worth writing.

@Ilove

Thanks for the kudos. Appreciation from nonconformists always welcome.

It's so obviously you. The more you protest, whether by your silly
I ❤️ the Geek disguise, or as yourself - the game is up. You've gone and lost all credibility mate!

I love how the guy even tries to write differently, going so far as to point out 'her' own spelling mistakes.... then returns as geeknomad and points out the different writing styles. Friend, just let it go.
