Maybe you can help me out here, but how is she a geek?

She says she is, because in any other community she's just a normal looking chick. Claiming geek gives you +3 on the 10 scale. See iJustine for reference.
Um, I'm a geek because I live on the Internet and make a living FROM the Internet. It started with DOS and King's Quest when I was a little kid... Does using a Linux machine in '99 give me any geek points? Oh, please, can I be a geek now? *rolls eyes
Wow, King's Quest? Cred granted.
Dog wrestler? Cred accepted.
How did you know what I was doing? The dog won.
Oh shit! I Googled you! OMG! Now what? Apparently, you make a habit of being an taint cheese on the Internet.
