Do your friends know you're that geeky?
If any of my friends knew half the geeky shit and nights spent gaming and retarded internetisms I know I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be my friends anymore.

Or is it just me, and you all have open honest relationships?

Eh, not really. When it comes to things like GTA/Gran Turismo/Console games they know I love that shit. But most people don't even know I play BF2 etc..

They know I game on it, but how many hours I do spend on it they don't know.
Also, all the stupid internetisms as I like to call them.

and the fact I sometimes cancel with the wife to get a gaming session in......................

A large proportion of my clan are real life mates. I wouldn't say that I'm completely honest with the rest of the world though. Having said that ... loads of people in my school have and play either consoles or PCs.

My friends know I play games, but it's not like they're nerdy games...I play TF2, Rock Band and GTA IV currently most. Not like those are nerdy. Most 'nerdy' game I play is probably HL2.

Many of my friends would not know what TF2, BF2, BF2142 and 1942 were if they came and hit them with a big slippery tuna.
They mostly play consoles, such as XBox and PS3, and even then it's only CoD4, Resistance and GTA IV.

Those apply for me.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

All my friends/work colleagues know that I play computer games and that I am a computer geek, but I am a new age computer geek. The millennium geek so to say. I am comfortable in front of the computer screen but also do a lot of socialising.

They dont consider me as a geek,more like a pc expert.Probably because they dont know me well.

Though i have a couple of friends that are HUGE geeks and warez kiddies

Playing games doesn't necessarily make you geeky, imo. Playing Pokeymon or Yugio(however it is spelled) in your school cafeteria is extremely nerdlike in my opinion.

oh god no. it would destroy my social life, and I like my social life ...a lot.
Only few of my friends know, but that's because they are also gamers/geeks.

Working in IT, it's really more of a profession than a hobby or a passion, so the "geek factor" kinda fades.
