Geek vs. Dork vs. Nerd

BI'75 says I am nerd. I say I am dork. Wikipedia says I'm a geek (although I would argue that their definition should be reassigned to dork whose definition they have deleted).

I fully admit to being a dork/wikipedia-geek. I love trivia. I love senseless facts. I obsess over random subjects (i.e., calendar reform). But Wikipedia, my spiritual home, says I am a geek; not a dork.

What do you say?

WikiGeek? Or this geek?

Oh yes, you are a geek. And you are pretty dorky as well. But I wouldn't call you a nerd. To me, being a nerd carries certain academic performance requirements which I am afraid you don't quite meet.
