Think you're a true geek?

Try this quiz and see your results...here is mine:

http://www.csmonitor.com/Innovation/Tech-Culture/2012/0125/Think-you-re-a-true-geek-Take-our-quiz/gadgets-break?cmpid=prc:geek:b

You are a geek
Congratulations! You exhibit many geeky traits, but not so many that we should be worried. Woot

So it looks like I am not a true geek, although many people would argue with the results of this quiz.

    @Justin_TheBuck, The Christian Science Monitor is actually a very respectable paper/website.

    And question #42, with the repeated use of every nerd's favorite word, "actually", was brilliant!

    My dream car is a Volkswagon Thing. Nothing close to it on the list. Picked the Aston Martin just to pick something.

    I have actively sought out an AMC Gremlin and currently a Porsche 924/944 (that is the VW "porsche") and one of my biggest regrets in life was passing on a Delorean I could have bought. TBF, the outside is stainless but almost everything else turns to rust, they are heavy and drive terribly... still regret it almost weekly.

    Right now I am just waiting for VW to finally release their microbus.

    I think I scored low because I'm not really a gamer, or at least not since i left my 20's behind (ago and dice joke! Rare!)

    I figured I would get a higher ranking. I think my not liking Star Trek and Firefly made my score so low.
