White & Nerdy test

Taking inspiration from the musical and lyrical genius (I'm being serious there) of "Weird" Al Yankovic, I have listed below, the points in the song "White & Nerdy" (parody of "Ridin' Dirty" by Chamillionaire). There are links to both of these videos at the end of this post, but I'm afraid if I put them here, you will forget to come back, so hold your horses. In the far right columns, I have noted whether or not I qualify for that particular aspect. Below the chart, you will find the tally and results of this test as applied to me; below that, my analysis and conclusion.

Although I am unable to do anything interactive here in this blog, I encourage you to follow along, writing down your own answers as they apply to you. Find out just how white & nerdy you are, and let me know that I'm not alone. You can post your results and any comments in the comments below this post.

NOTE: It is very possible to be "whiter than sour cream" without actually having white skin.

Have Fun!!
