The concepts of "freaks" and "geeks" migrated to us from America thanks to the series created by the duo of Paul Feg and Judd Apatow. The tape consisted of eighteen parts, but the NBC channel showed only twelve episodes, and then for some reason the broadcast was stopped.
The remaining three episodes were shown by the Family Channel cable channel a year later. Immediately all eighteen episodes could be watched only on DVD. Despite the minimized screening, the film still became sensational, and the echoes of this noise reached us, firmly rooted in the youth vocabulary.
Unfortunately, ignorant people believe that the word “geek” is an insult identical to the word “idiot”. The dissonant concept of “freak” also falls under this comb. What is really hidden behind these concepts? Let's first, for the sake of reliability, take a look at the English-Russian dictionary. The word “freak” (freak) is translated as “weirdo”, and “geek” (geek) is “crazy”. These concepts have a fairly bright, good color. Most likely, the filmmakers wanted to tell us about this. Yes, these teens are different from most peers. They think differently, look at the world differently. And this is their originality.
A real geek is a person who loves computer games,
unusual gadgets, superheroes. He is advanced in his own way, prefers to communicate with people who are original, smart, who appreciate a sense of humor. It does not tolerate glamor, slow-thinking, everyday life.
Geek is a fan of computer chips and technology, board games, intellectual entertainment. Networking can well replace his conversation with real people in the real world. For some reason, it is believed that the geek guy is a closed, boring one. Despite his “twist”, he is smart and very interesting. Of course, if you pick the right key for him.
But what is a geek girl? She is a girl in the full sense of the word. The term “geek” in no way cancels round shapes, critical days and the ability to love. But the rest of the geek girl is different from the mass of peers. She has different priorities, other hobbies. She hangs on other parties, prefers other series, puts on other clothes. Of course, the geek girl also loves flowers, ice cream, chocolate and cats, but ...
Her intellect is her scourge. This girl is sharp-witted, smart, quick-witted - call it what you like, only she can’t be stupid by definition. Geeks also dream of family, children, love to the grave, but see their dreams in a different light. A geek girl, for example, will spend the last penny faster on a WOW account than on good brand shoes or a nice little suit - she has a utilitarian attitude to food and clothing.
Her style is a necessary minimum: T-shirt, sneakers, jeans. Geeks with makeup do not bother too much (either a barely noticeable minimum, or the absence thereof, although the presence of Gothic is sometimes possible). Such a lady is usually financially independent, and in her behavior sometimes shows clearly masculine habits. A geek girl, most likely, will constantly dress in one store (there is everything that suits her) or treat her friend with beer if the latter is not able to pay today herself.
If you liked a geek girl, prepare to conquer her own weapon - humor, intelligence, interest in unusual techniques, computer knowledge and, of course, independence.
