<Prongs> 'lo
<@Mewtwo|away> 'la
<Prongs> away?
<@Mewtwo|away> yup
<Prongs> Cricket fan?
<@Mewtwo|away> nop
<Prongs> I thought that is a compulsion for any Indian.
<@Mewtwo|away> yes you should know I'm not one of the 'average Indian crowd'
<@Mewtwo|away> if so then I'd be listening to bollywood all day, watching hindi movies
<Prongs> Nay, i don't do that.
<@Mewtwo|away> so you can't call it as compulsion
<@Mewtwo|away> just because you are into it
<@Mewtwo|away> or most others
<Prongs> You are from Mumbai so...
<@Mewtwo|away> so? -.-
<@Mewtwo|away> once again you are categorizing me into the average crowd
<@Mewtwo|away> Mumbai is also where people go to pubs n stuff, I don't.
<Prongs> Well Mumbai has many Cricket players and fans so,
<@Mewtwo|away> =.=
<@Mewtwo|away> AGAIN?
<Prongs> Anyway it was an innocent question.
<Prongs> What is the trouble in being categorized as such?
<@Mewtwo|away> because I'm completely different?
<Prongs> Every nerd in the world says that he is not a nerd.
<Prongs> And it may be the opposite.
<Prongs> So there is no fault in being categorized as such.
<@Mewtwo|away> I never said I'm a nerd!
<Prongs> LIES!
<Prongs> You are a nerd.
<@Mewtwo|away> but you are categorizing people as in.. oh, he's an Indian so he does this, oh he's from Mumbai so he does that
<@Mewtwo|away> Definitions of nerd on the Web:
<@Mewtwo|away> * swot: an insignificant student who is ridiculed as being affected or boringly studious
<@Mewtwo|away> I am NOT studious
<@Mewtwo|away> Definitions of geek on the Web:
<@Mewtwo|away> * a carnival performer who does disgusting acts
<@Mewtwo|away> * eccentric: a person with an unusual or odd personality
<@Mewtwo|away> I am that
<@Mewtwo|away> Geek is a common term for someone who is obsessed by their computer, and has achieved a high level of expertise in their chosen area. ...
<Prongs> -.-
<Prongs> Nerd.
* Prongs is now known as Nerd
<@Mewtwo|away> sigh..
<@Mewtwo|away> you might be one
<@Mewtwo|away> I'm not
<@Mewtwo|away> look up the difference
* Nerd is now known as LIES
* LIES is now known as Prongs
<Prongs> Ok then Geek,
<Prongs> Is that fine/
<Prongs> ?
<@Mewtwo|away> Nerds have the added distinction of being "unattractive." Ouch.
<@Mewtwo|away> Like nerds, geeks are smart, but they tend to focus more on technology.
<@Mewtwo|away> <-- see
<@Mewtwo|away> Smart but not bookworm'ish
<@Mewtwo|away> I'll just prefer you call me NiSh
<@Mewtwo|away> I'm a different category altogether
<Prongs> <@Mewtwo|away> Nerds have the added distinction of being "unattractive." Ouch. <---Never seen you to say that.
<Prongs> Can the new catgory be named?
<@Mewtwo|away> Never seen you to say that.
<@Mewtwo|away> that's because I didn't
<@Mewtwo|away> I quoted it
<@Mewtwo|away> from a page
<Prongs> oops, punctuation error.
<Prongs> Never seen you, to say that.
<@Mewtwo|away> well, by unattractive I didn't mean in terms of looks
<@Mewtwo|away> I do attract people by other ways
<Prongs> Icecream Vans?
<@Mewtwo|away> Else I wudn't have DP.com and everything else as it is now
<@Mewtwo|away> You wouldn't have been talking to me
<@Mewtwo|away> if I were boring and unattractive
<Prongs> You are.
<@Mewtwo|away> I wouldn't have followers or contacts
* Prongs hides
<@Mewtwo|away> I wouldn't have people miss me when I go offline for 2 days and they start to worry
<Prongs> O_o
<Prongs> That happens with me too.
<@Mewtwo|away> So I never called you anything
<@Mewtwo|away> But anyway forget that, it's online. I do have people offline as well, who respect me and bow to me for stuff
<Prongs> -.-
<Prongs> Bow?
<@Mewtwo|away> Nvm I'm going to leave this argument
<@Mewtwo|away> I need to sync my pod and shower, and lunch.
<Prongs> Argument?
<Prongs> Oh wait a sec.
<@Mewtwo|away> Definitions of argument on the Web:
<@Mewtwo|away> * a fact or assertion offered as evidence that something is true; "it was a strong argument that his hypothesis was true"
<@Mewtwo|away> * controversy: a contentious speech act; a dispute where there is strong disagreement; "they were involved in a violent argument"
<@Mewtwo|away> * a discussion in which reasons are advanced for and against some proposition or proposal; "the argument over foreign aid goes on and on"
<Prongs> Yeah yeah
<Prongs> All right.

So what will you categorize yourself as?

I don't know myself. People at school like me for my good nature. Am quite popular. Play in a band. But still ..well *eccentric to others because of random interests in Video games, astrophysics and paleontology. Now if I were living in Japan or the States then maybe I wouldn't have been that kind of outcast. But I AM. I hate all the 'average Indian' obsessions like Cricket, Pirated Software (that are not games ), Bollywood, COUNTER STRIKE, Chetan Bhagat, SONY PLAYSTATIONS(don't ask why),GRAND THEFT AUTO...ugh. Not intended to hurt anyone, but I'm not even a fan of the pokemon anime that the average Indian pokefan is.(I guess everyone here except Cierra is, Petey is an exception. He is the l33t erīto no chō otaku! )

I hate CS, CB and GTA.
Petey is not an exception, he likes Cricket.
Also so should we classify you as the:
"I don't know myself" type?
/me hides

no problems with a "I don't know myself" type! Though I would have preferred something more original than My first sentence!
