"These two words, nerd and geek, are frequently used interchangeably. However, this does a great disservice to all nerds and geeks who wear the badge of their respective anti-social lifestyle choice with pride. For this reason I feel that it is of the utmost importance that we correctly define the two terms.
Geek

A geek can best be defined as one who maintains an excessive fascination with a single thing or collection of things. I use the more general term thing only because there is a wide range of fascinations available which may qualified as geeky. Some have asserted that the object of obsession must be one that is not considered to be socially acceptable or commonly observed from the majority of inhabitants of any give society."

My type of comedy...

I'm a huge fan of dark humor and terrible horror movies.  I'm one of those people that goes into a movie theater with a friend (or my older sister) and watch a horror movie and just laugh throughout the entire thing.  It can be ridiculously evil and crazy, but I would love every minute of it.  It's the type of reality-based fantasy that lets me keep my creative psyche on point. If you ever gone to a movie and laughed at something inappropriate/scary, you're my kind of person. In my DVD collection, I have things like Saw 1 and 2, the original Nightmare On Elm Street, Freddy Vs. Jason, The Hills Have Eyes, Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake, and countless other films.  Even in my videogaming days, I've had violent pieces of work like Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil, Tekken, Mortal Kombat, etc.
Example: Here's a short film that my sister and I love to watch.  It's called "Sunday's Game"
