'Geek' is an ancient word, which has always been used to signify someone strange or peculiar. In modern times, a geek is specifically someone with a strange or peculiar obsession with intellectualism and/or obtuse details in science and technology (perhaps synonymous with a boffin).

A 'geek alert' is a slang term for an informal warning that someone is prone to geek-like behaviour or conversation.
