This is a follow-up to the "who goes into pathology?" thread.
Chicken heads anyone?
Only a true geek would pull out the chicken head reference at a time like this.
I'm not a geek, I'm a nerd! Geeks are carnival side shows!
In actuality, a geek is merely "someone with an odd personality." The chicken head biting geek has gone the way of the Dodo bird, the passenger pigeon, and republicans who actually care about small government and personal freedom.
The definition has evolved, unlike Dodo birds, passenger pigeons, and republicans.
I think the urban dictionary definition of 'chickenhead' is quite different... Maybe the kind of person DJMD was hoping to see more of at pathology conferences...?
I have never been clear on geek vs nerd..
Nerds wear pocket protectors and drool.Yaah, I have never been clear on geek vs nerd..
Maybe "Cynical Bastard" would be appropriate.
Or smart-ass jerk
I think everyone in medicine is a geek to an extent
Thanks, although I would venture that very few people who know me would actually label me a jerk, but that's neither here nor there. Smart ass? Most definitely.
Not you! I was referring to myself as a smart-ass jerk
Besides, I use 'jerk' as a term of endearment kinda like 'dork'
