If language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant; if what is said is not what is meant, then what must be done remains undone; if this remains undone, morals and art will deteriorate; if justice goes astray, the people will stand about in helpless confusion.--Confucius
I would love to staple this onto the forehead of just about every media pundit, judge, and politician out there.
Hence there must be no arbitrariness in what is said. This matters above
everything.
Now if giving virtual high fives over geek quizzes isn't geeky, I don't know what is.
| You are 30% geek | You are a geek liaison, which means you go both ways. You can hang out with normal people or you can hang out with geeks which means you often have geeks as friends and/or have a job where you have to mediate between geeks and normal people. This is an important role and one of which you should be proud. In fact, you can make a good deal of money as a translator.
