The Geek Hierarchy: a Flowchart

via ChartPorn: someone over at Rev3 comics site iFanboy has dredged up a copy of beloved, defunct Early Internet comedy site Brunching Shuttlecocks’ geek hierarchy flowchart.

A sample branch: sci-fi fans > video gamers > roleplaying gamers > LARPers > 13-year-old gamers of any sort.

(click the image to see its full, more readable size.)

For those who’d prefer a more technical take: Luke Welling has a programmer hierarchy flowchart with those smug assembly and LISP types at the top.
