As in they obsess over anime and most Japanese like things, but that's it. In ever other aspect you wouldn't really be able to tell they were a nerd or a geek. You would almost always need to bring up anime or pokemon to get them going. > > And while some may be whovians, a good amount outright avoid such things cause they are creeped out by such 'fandoms' or 'extreme followings' even though they already do so at 10x the extreme with anime... Especially when you consider that whovians mainly limit themselves to say, the show. But anime people tend to obsess over almost anything that's anime... That is A LOT of obsessing to be doing. > > > > The fact that you can be called gay for liking certain geeky things that other geeks don't prove that geeks have their own standards especially now that the community has become huge. > > You mean the fact that human beings are capable of producing negative meaning words towards people with differing interests? *gasp* > Cause you know, that's not something you see in cases such as sport nuts _at all_. > You didn't get what I was trying to say with my post, you just agreed with my statement that geeks have standards just like every other kind of community which means that geek rebels can exist
