are you a Jock or Nerd?

How dumb (not the poster but the FB poll).

I am definitely a nerd... But I am also a competitive triathlete, marathon runner and karateka.

I refuse to categorize.

Voted no!

bah, I voted without reading. I thought that jock>nerd meant you were a jock that turned into a nerd. At least that is what I am. When I lived in Alaska I ran cross country, track, played basketball, baseball, and soccer. I lost most of my jock friends when I moved to Colorado and couldn't stand the local ones so I became a nerd.

I tip towards the nerd side of things.

Spend way more time fragging, playing music, drawing, reading comic books, and pursuing intelligent discussion than I do scratching my balls.

I grew up playing soccer, and hockey, but I generally relied on outsmarting opponents in those athletic pursuits. I was a goalie playing hockey, so that's the odd duck in the locker room anyhow.

Like bunni, I spend many hours climbing, or training to climb, but I firmly believe the pursuit of climbing falls under the nerd umbrella as most climbers I've met in my travels tend to be doctors/programmers/engineers/overly schooled desk jockeys, and often loners that don't get along with society. The climbing community is a flock of nerds, and the meat-heads that occasionally dabble in it are inevitably amazed by the capabilities of the skinny little nerds with no extra weight to pull. The nerd body is highly desirable in climbing.

NERD HERE!

More nerd than jock.

Where's the "greater than or equal to" sign? I would say im equalish, but more of a jock in that i still love sports and work out often. I mean i was All-State in football, but at the same time i was more in love with my gaming system than women to.....kind of a toss up.

Nerd. I'm tall, skinny, have glasses and play pencil and paper roleplaying games.

Though I really like jogging and ran Cross Country in High School...
