Are we all just a bunch of wayward Star Wars/Treckie nerds? - General Tiki

Do you check any (or all) of the following web sites several times a week looking for new Tiki items to add to your collection: http://www.tikifarm.com http://www.munktiki.com http://www.tikibosko.com http://www.ebay.com http://www.shagmart.com Is your web browser's homepage http://www.konakai.com? Do you often pester the clerk at the liquor store for demerara rum, marascino liquor or other exotic spirits? Do you wear aloha shirts (or dresses with hawaiian prints) 4 or more days per week (not applicable to Hawaiian residents)? Do you own and display more than 25 tiki mugs, of which you know every detail, including the most recent successful completed auction price for each? Are there more than 25 paper parasols in your house at this very moment? Have you travelled more than 100 miles to eat/drink at a tiki-themed establishment? When you look at a beautiful landscape, whether real or a photo or painting, do you almost always think "a giant, flaming moai would look excellent there?" When driving somewhere, have you ever made a U-Turn because you thought you saw a cool A-frame that may have at one time been a tiki themed establishment? Do you think your friends who aren't into Tiki are not as cool as you? Give yourself 1 point for every YES answer, and 0 points for every NO answer. 0 points - you are not a geek 1 - 3 points - you are a nerd. Your friends think you are strange, but you can't hang with the hard core geeks either, thus you are relegated to Nerdom. 4-7 points - you are a Functioning Geek. Obsessed, but not dangerously so, you are capable of having normal relationships with non-tiki geeks provided they accept your geek tendencies. 8-10 points - You are a 10th level Tiki Geek. You are lost in a tropical paradise of your own mind and will never return to Earth. You consider this state of being "paradise," however most people define it as "loco." -Mike
