When is Embrace Your Geekness Day? This holiday is always celebrated on July 13
Calling all Geeks. Today is your day. It is Embrace Your Geekness Day, a July 13 holiday. It is a great day to be a Geek. Or, to know one.
A geek is an individual who is highly intelligent, brainy, and technically oriented. Geeks are at home in the world of computers, and computer systems. A geek is usually formal, studious, and into his or her technical environment, often to the exclusion of all else.
A geek is closely related to a “Nerd”. However, a nerd may or may not possess technical expertise. Some people view the term “Geek” with a negative connotation. Are they jealous of your knowledge and skills? We certainly think so.
