Default Which types are geeks?

Which types have you known personally who you would consider to be geeks?

I've known some really "geeky" ENFPs in my time. (Seriously)

As have I...especially where fandoms are concerned. I admit my people are geeks, as well as the INTJs. I have also known some really geeky ISTJs.

ISTJs and INTPs.

INTJs sort of appear as such, but they are more like "goody two shoes" sort of persona.

Yeah, there are geeks of every type, but primarily INTJ and INTP. Secondarily, ISTJ and ENFPs are pretty geeky.

I think people confuse being unique with being a geek. INTJs are more unique than anything. INTPs are the geeks, that Ti-Ne combo with Fe in there really make for a magnificent geek.

Oh, there are definitely some INTJ geeks out there. I work with a definite INTJ who with his subscriptions to Sci-Fi magazines and gawky awkwardness is a classic one.
