I consider myself an immature geek, but only when people aren't around obviously. On the topic my favourite kind of geeks are the ones that think no one can see them when really there's about 12 people watching them pick their nose. Fortunately I make sure no one is around when I do that... But my geeky collection of weird traits include:
-Dancing around like a retarded monkey
-making weird faces and noises
-picking at my face/beard (which I call a beard but is really blonde stubble)
-asking random questions in lectures so I can answer them myself
-eating ridiculously fast and thinking it's cool
and so on and so on. But i think my worst geeky trait is video games. I get so annoyed by Fifa to a point where I'm actually punching the chair I'm sitting on. I don't do a great deal to hide this to my family as they hear me getting annoyed from downstairs, usually asking in a concerned voice "what was that?" and getting a disgruntled "nothing" in reply.
However I do my best to hide it from my friends. What really happens when they kill me or beat me, it's eating me alive inside. I think it has something to do with being a really bad loser. Whenever I used to play real games of football, if the other team scored I would fake an injury so I had a reason to explain losing other than that we were just really bad. (We lost practically every game that season). I have got better at channeling this since I got older but I would like to think that all video gamers are the same as me. This would be out of hope more than expectation but besides video gaming I think everyone needs to admit they have a geeky side or you will just look like you're actually weird when it comes round to the nose picking.
