No, I hadn't seen it before. While that I am not big on Youtube, it is certainly the kind of thing that interests me. I am an information junkie (colloquially known as a data slut), and I am always fascinated by the evolution of the Internet.
And it is exactly that which makes me a geek. The word 'geek' implies someone with a deep and residing interest in a singular subject ie maths geek, computer geek. On the hand, 'nerd' implies someone who enjoys learning and, as a result, has a general store of knowledge on a wide variety of subjects, although the depth of their knowledge never reaches that of the geek.
Geeks are specialists. Nerds are generalists.
I am a nerd.
(Although this is what a nerd really looks like. The word was invented by Dr Seuss.)
Yeah its a nerdgasm alright. But only if one believes it.
I remain unconvinced. As although the infinite linking of data creates a meta universe of its own, unless you are an modern anthropologist (dont even get me started there) or a wikipedia addict (yes i see where you fit in here Lee) this is largely as irrellevant as me boasting that i could link any statement back to porn in 3 steps.

I don't think you really are a nerd and therefore capable of nerdgasms. :P

It is kinda let down by the bit about changing 'love' and 'family' at the end, but other than that, fan-fucking-tastic.
