My buds and I laugh at ourselves all the time about our "geekiness".
We are all well-adjusted, moderately to very successful, married-with-one-daughter (all...), nice car drivin', good job havin', not ABOUT to be screwed-with, type-of-guys, not recognizable as geeks at all. In fact, I would wager that, if you placed us in a police line-up, and said "pick out the geeks", NO-ONE would pick us at all.......unless you were familiar with Warhammer 40K. The ONLY folks that might consider us to be geeks are our wives, all of which begin that aggravating eye-roll-thing at the merest MENTION of the game.
Me and the guys just laughed it off, until we attended the "WARFAIR" week-end tournement in Atlanta, and saw the type of geeks that were there.....
Apparently, there are "geeks", and then there are "Das Uber-geeks"...
`Boss!
