Being a geek is a great thing. I think we’re all geeks. Being a geek means you’re passionate about something and that defines your uniqueness. I would rather be passionate about something than be apathetic about everything.
One reason I relate to ‘Veronica Mars’ fans is because I can totally geek out about shows. I mean, I write Vince Gilligan fan mail every year.
I read the Steve Jobs book, and that kind of changed everything. I’ve been, like, an Apple geek my whole life and have always seen him as a hero. But reading the book, and learning about how he built the company, and maintaining that corporate culture and all that, I think that influenced me a lot.
I feel like geek is about obsession. I feel like I geek out on certain things and that just means it’s a mad devotion or obsession to something.
I’m a geek.
I’d totally be attracted to a geek girl!
I don’t know anyone who was never a geek, really, when they look at their own lives. I think that from the outside looking in, you think that you weren’t necessarily a tragic geek, but yes, you did lean in that direction.
As far as geek culture, I didn’t grow up in the comic con geek culture lane, then I started doing Comic Cons seeing the impact of it. The character, Rufio living on.
Being a sci-fi geek, it was just lovely to be on a show where I pretend I’m in outer space. That’s always been my dream: to pretend to be out in space or actually be out in space.
