Nowhere near geeky enough.
I think the US Big Brother would be the best show to be on, because you get to sit in a nice house with hot girls/guys all day, but still have some of the back-stabbing strategy to have fun with. It's all the fun of Survivor except without the eating of the bugs and sleeping outside in monsoons.
Big Brother must be a bit like being in prison. Even worse perhaps, as they have no access to newspapers, let alone the 'net... no long walks, a diet of £1 a day for weeks on end... and not even a bath in private!
Surprisingly, I have no problem with any of that. I should try to get on it.
^ You must be made of stern stuff!
They now have psychological assessments before they allow anyone on, as it could easily cause someone to loose it in there...
Apparently, they would not let Whitney Houston enter the British BB for that very reason. Very responsible, imo.

That's the thing... I hate Big Brother... but I'd love to be part of that type of strategy. For some reason playing a game on that level really intrigues me. Though the five minute fame aspect of it that's tied into the UK (unsure about the US) puts me off.
Though without a decent gym and my regular food intake to match it I'd probably get extremely irritable.
^I've seen both the US and UK versions and the UK version was shockingly raunchy and pathetic, kind of like The Real World is now. A lot of people here hate the US Big Brother but I think that if they watched both versions they would realize ours isn't so bad. I would say that Survivor has more of a fame aspect than Big Brother. I mean, I'm sure the people that go on a show where you are taped 24/7 have to be interested on being on TV to some degree, but most of the past Big Brother contestants quickly fade into obscurity and go back to their normal lives.
Also, the food situation isn't so bad, unless you are on slop for the week. If you're on the winning side you get to eat whatever you want. Oh yeah, and the house does have a gym, though it's small.
If you have watched Big Brother After Dark in the past on Showtime 2, some icky things go on sometimes...like the whole Natalie and Matt "thing" under the blankets a couple of seasons ago. But I've noticed that they don't air this kind of footage on the prime time episodes that often, they usually avoid the raunchy stuff and focus on strategy.
I think what has helped the US Big Brother is that there has been no celebrity edition, so you don't have these crazy has-been camera whores trying to win back their fame.

They hide sex under the blanket? Bummer. if the camera is in there filming that, then I'll just leave the lights on and not hide under a blanket.
I would take a good culinary class at a community college (enough to learn the basics) and go on Hell's Kitchen. If you can learn and cook the very limited menu, and keep cool under pressure, you can keep from being eliminated. Gordon Ramsay comes across as a lunatic, but he respects competence and only really goes off on the stupid, stupid people who shouldn't be allowed near sharp knives and hot stoves anyway.
I'd aim to come in second, because I wouldn't actually want to be an executive chef.

Well there was one couple that had sex in the bathroom. We didn't get to see anything but they played the sound....that was interesting. And that was an itty bitty bathroom, just a toilet.
Now I really want to be on this show.
I would probably go on The Amazing Race, but none of the others. I wouldn't be a fan of eating the nasty crap on Survivor (yeah, that's the only real downside for me) and I would probably kill the annoying people on Big Brother... I like not being in the slammer for 25-to-life.
