"Chick" refers to Jack T. Chick, the author of the tract.  He has a whole website of them, and is actually somewhat well-known.  

Scott Kurtz, of PVP, did a nice little rant on Chick.

Note that among the less vindictive yet still very faithful Christians, chick isn't necessarily very compelling. My born-again co-worker and I endlessly bash him, especially since our mail tends to include at least one every couple weeks. My biggest complaint is that he needs a good artist. Oh, that and perhaps a spiritual dimension to his bigotry. My co-worker agrees.

And on that note, I received 2 pounds of JW tracts in the mail today. Yes, that's a lot. Funny thing is, I actually learned a couple things. Then I threw them all away. Their concept of eternal reward fails to appeal to me in any way, and their unique vocabulary and term usage seems designed to be contradictory (to all other Christians).

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

"I have gamed for 12+ hours straight." Heh, I forced several others into a 27 hour marathon...

"I have read: Douglas Adams, Piers Anthony, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Stephen Hawking, Robert Heinlein, Robert Jordan, H.P. Lovecraft, Anne McCaffrey, Jrr Tolkien" er.. yes, all the above... in facte all but 3 of the items in that section...

And the best "I want to score well on this test"

I was disappointed that there was an entry for I have 2+ dictionaries but not 2+ dictionaries in each of 2+ languages (the number for the first for me is at least 2, in each of 4 languages...)

I got 57.00197% - Extreme Geek. Which is third from the top, barring only "Geek God" and "Dysfunctional Geek." If only I knew more than HTML, Perl, and some crappy scripting languages, or at least my Geek Code, then I'd be a Geek God.

Saint, the highest in my star wars clan was 40%.

In a star wars clan.

Ok, so 2 people got that, and one of them was a woman who doesn't know anything about computers at all, but there you go.

Being in any "clan" that's not a scottish line of descent should have given you points.

54.24063% - Super Geek

Not as high as I would have hoped, being the editor and all. I really took a hit on some of the science stuff, and I obviously don't have enough collections.

That villain one didn't really grab me, I ended up just choosing the most amusing one of each question, which was hard cuz few made me chuckle. I blame Entropy.

Oh. And i'm still the geekiest.
