Texaco

One of the best gas stations around. Provide quick service with a pretty low cost. Best selection of candy available.

R: It's too bad that the Texaco near me got turned into a Shell.

B: Yeah, that's too bad. It's also too bad that you judge a gas station by its candy selection.

scream name

Mistaken pronunciation of "screen name" by one Marzipan of Homestarrunner.com fame.

Well, I don't know what a scream name is, so there you go.

A's

1) Plural form of the best grade possible. A+'s seem to be almost nonexistent nowadays.

2) Nickname of the American League West's Oakland Athletics.

1) Herman got two A's in two days, thanks to his hour-a-night study program.

2) In 1914, the Braves beat the A's in the World Series. That won't likely happen soon, as the A's can't seem to escape the first round of the playoffs. See choke.

Geek/Nerd Debate

There is a difference between geeks and nerds.

Nerds are smart, people who lack much of a social life. They often have very few friends. Nerds don't talk much, and don't expect others to talk much to them. They are usually nice people, but don't have the social skills to go out and meet new friends.

Geeks are different from nerds in the fact that they have social lives. However, these social lives are often spent pursuing some passion that the geek is obsessed with (i.e. Yu-Gi-Oh!). They spend all their time thinking about their one obsession, and play it in all of their free time. Geeks are usually only friends with other geeks, and attempts to converse with geeks is futile, unless, of course, you want to talk about Star Trek or whatever the certain geek is obsessed with.

Examples of geek obsessions are Star Trek, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Magic the Gathering, StarCraft, and basically any other RPG.

Nerds are often very shy, while geeks are more outgoing.

Nerds spend most of their free time studying, while geeks make free time so they can play Dungeons and Dragons.

Nerds care what others think of them, but geeks are almost oblivious to the existence of those outside of their geek clan.

Based on all this, I would have to conclude that it is easier to befriend a nerd than a geek, but a geek would probably be a more interesting person.
