I beg to differ - I'm not a geek, I'm a dork!

Y'know, I tried nerd and dork. I really did. But I'll always go back to geek. I have a special place in my heart for geek.

Nerd - is smart in everything he or she does
Geek - is smart only in his or her niche' ("Band Geek" for example)
Dork - A person who isn't really smart, but also can't figure out how to function socially ("Star Trek Dork" for example)

Ah! I understood, thanks.
I would prefer not to express opinions about myself, but, well, Geek seems the better definition.

The Gork began to advance, inexorable, enormous, terrible. I looked at him, terrorized.
The Gork opened the mouth, showing 16 rows of sharp teeth.
He spoke: "Nerd?". I did not understand.
"Geek?" he said then. I continued to not understand.
A roar came out from that terrible mouth: “DORK????". Nothing. I did not understand.
A long pause of wait.
The Gork closed the mouth suddenly.
On his face a disconsolate look (disconsolate?).
"Better if we invade another planet. Here the guys are very stupid. They are inventing the words and, then, the same words are not understood. This is a bad place, if you cannot communicate with the natives using their language".
With these words, the Gork vanished.
