Geek is actually just keeg spelled backwards, that's all. The word keeg originated from an old viking story where one viking rubbed his wool against another viking and it made a spark. That spark created a huge debate among the vikings and it eventually led to a dance off between the two viking clans. The keegs were one of those clans, and the clan that actually won. So yeah, there you have it. If you spark electricity, and you win, your called a keeg. But you fail, so you don't have to worry.

The dictionary definition of a "Geek" is a circus performer whose job it is to bite the head off of a live chicken for the audiences amusement.
No lie, I'm serious.
