I always thought fish guys were supposed to be geeks...

[Magnum Man]

I use the words assimilate & collective in 2 consecutive posts & no Star Trek comments??? maybe just American aquarists are geeks... or maybe all these years... I've just been the geek

Borg are programmed not to react to provocations, they simply note the event and pass it on upwards.

Yes and no...
The answer can go both ways...
I would consider myself a fish nerd by all means... And I'm extremely proud of it...! And yes, I also wear glasses... And I got rid of my bow ties...

There's an old joke "I am Dyslexic of Borg - your *ss will be laminated"

Actually, we are all super cool. Geeks? We transcend both geeks and nerds, and there isn't a red shirt in this crew. We're like well dressed 1940s film stars - detectives on a quest for the truth about guppies.

For. Awhile. I. Lived. On the. Street that. William. Shatner. Grew up. On. I don't. Want. To. Overdramatize that anecdote.

I’ve known a few fish guys over the years and they were all the type of guy that was detail oriented and a stickler for procedure . Some were clean freaks but the best one I knew was a slob who succeeded with every fish he had . His aquariums were clean but his house and yard and fish room were a sty . The guy really had the touch . All he needed was a pair and some water and he had fry within a month . The only nerds I know are comic book geeks .
