No way. I know a lot of guys who would die to have such a fine hardback
collection. Just because you pursue something you love doesn't make you a
geek. Much less a King Geek. But I suppose the remark was said in humor
among friends, so more likely it's just good-natured ribbing. I mean, let's
face it, to six-pack guys who never miss a baseball or football game on
Sundays and were high school jocks, we are all geeks for playing an RPG and
subscribing to this list. Something like Gurth's translation of the
Chromebooks would be laughed at by these kinds of people, meanwhile they're
the coolest damn thing in my opinion, and I'd assume those of most of the
RNers on the server. So there's a difference between your friends calling
you a King Geek and your enemies doing so. And now since I know I've blown
this way out of proportion from the fluffy post it started out as, I'll lurk
back into the electrons.
