Geekstandoff

Geek Stand-Off by Douglas ChickWhile surfing the Internet, my friend Joe sent me a picture he stumbled upon of Leo Laporte, dressed in geek garb, that read, Here is a picture geekier than yours.. And although it is true that Leo is impressively geeky looking, I insisted that my geek picture is geekier, while Leos is more nerdy than geeky. Joe continued to argue otherwise. And this is what I am reduced to in life, arguing with Joe over which one of us looks the geekiestand the discussion ensued.

Doug: My picture looks more geeky because I have a pocket protector full of pens and markerseven a screw driver.

Joe: Yes, but Leo is wearing a bow tie.

Doug: But a bow tie represents nerdiness, not geekiness, and I am wearing thick dark glasses with white tape in the middle. So clearly, I am the geek, not Leo Laporte.

Joe: Argue as you will; Leos glasses are real, and he is wearing a bow tie, and he is carrying books.

Doug: Ah! I am holding a laptop, as todays geeks carry laptops, and nerds carry books. And my glasses are for reading.

Joe: Yes, but Leo is wearing a bow tie. End of conversation!

So I put it to the readers. From the picture above, which one of use looks truly geekier?
