Enquanto o comum dos mortais discute temas saudáveis à hora do almoço, eu habito esse espaço indefinido que é trabalhar num departamento de sociologia. E hoje, na cantina, a conversa do grupo de estudos de música pop era sobre as diferenças entre ser geek e nerd:
Adam: See, I don’t agree with you. I think there is a clear social hierarchy between being a geek and being a nerd.
Matt: What do you mean?
Adam: Well a geek can eventually become cool. When I was in school everybody started talking to me when they realised I could play bass guitar. My geekdom became cool.
Matt: Well I disagree. You see, as a nerd you eventually gain respect, because you do well at school.
Mark: Guys, I went to school in Glasgow. It does not matter if you are a Geek or a Nerd, you’ll always be beaten up at the school gates.
Uff, que alívio ser garota!
