Well. My definition of a geek basically falls under this:
"Being an entusiast of one or more topic/culture." In Japan, these are considered 'otaku.'
To illustrate, just because you're considered an 'otaku' doesn't necesarilly mean that you're into moe and anime. There are many types, there are game otaku, comics otaku, tech otaku, art otaku, camera otaku, video otaku, music otaku, etc etc etc.
In context to our culture, we can just replace the word 'otaku' with 'geek' from the above examples.
imo, if you're not a geek about something. You must have a boring passion.
Which kinda brings us to our next question: What are you geeky in? XD
Me? 2D fighters, figma, comics, Japan in general, Photoshop, Drawing in many forms of media, Gundam, Transformers, plenty of anime and manga, Ragnarok Online... uh.. there's probably more but I don't remember right now.
So yeah, I'm a geek, and geeks'll take over the world.
Note: We may have to define what the differences are between Geeks, Dorks, Nerds, Idiots and Jocks. Would there be a median between these classes?
