Daily Doctor: I Am Geek


David Tennant quote: "I still am a geek. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I see no shame in having an unhealthy obsession with something."

I'm not convinced about his wording - surely anything unhealthy is unhealthy? But it isn't necessarily unhealthy, and there is nothing wrong with obsession in that case, to my mind. Make sense?

I think the point is that an obsession being unhealthy doesn't make it shameful. Think of all the women who brag of their addiction to chocolate. I may have an unhealthy obsession with knitting, which causes my tendintis to flare up occasionally. But I'm not ashamed of that.
