Are you a geek/nerd stereotype?

Please understand I am not trying to attack newgrounds members. I am just very curious to how many people on this forum actually fit the stereotypical interpretation of an 'internet nerd' or 'geek'.

See how many of these you can relate to...

2) I get excited over the release date of a video game
3) I've watched an entire series of star trek or every star wars movie
4) I have had a debate over which console is better
5) After a day at school, college or work I retreat to a computer almost first thing
6) I only hang with my own gender
7) I like/have shaggy hair
8) I have something Simpson, Futurama or Family Guy related in my room
9) I am a fan of the Halo series
10) I have considered what it would be like to be a video game or movie hero at least once in my life
11) I have acne
12) I wear glasses
13) I own a runescape account (even if you don't play it anymore)
14) I use words such as 'lol' and 'rofl' in real life
15) I consider a sleepover me and friends playing videogames all night
16) I have at least one piece of clothes which has a cartoon on it
17) I consider somebody getting 'owned' or 'pawned' from an insult over the internet
18) I have more friends online then in real life
19) The opposite sex never pays attention to me
20) Some of my daily discussion topics involve some of the above

Give me your mark out of twenty and try to be honest.

Yes, I own one, but that's more than 5 years ago.
STOP JUDGING ME FOR IT!! PLEASE STOP!! I WAS YOUNG AND I DIDN'T CONSIDER THE CONSEQUENCES.

Rarely, but "lol" should be excluded when it comes to me, since it's a Dutch word with a similar meaning.

No.

17) I consider somebody getting 'owned' or 'pawned' from an insult over the internet

Nope.

19) The opposite sex never pays attention to me

Semi-true, never get beyond the fucking friend-zone, I suck at girls.

20) Some of my daily discussion topics involve some of the above

Way too broad to answer, but I talk about games if that's what you're asking.

Give me your mark out of twenty and try to be honest.

7/20. Not too bad, I suppose. But I found the criteria to be quite harsh and rather stereotypical, such as with the weight, glasses and hair.
