Go home then asshole the internet was better when you had to hack a community college for dialup because @Ted Empty wasn't on it. Seriously though if you're really 25 you probably don't know exactly what we're talking about.'

Edit: Keep rating me dumb. Textbook failed normie cope.

This is why I like the Terry Davis thread. He's like a throwback to when even the lolcows were geniuses (and before the term lolcow even existed).

this forum really needs new lolcows because fuck some of these threads have become embarrassing

i guess part of the problem with being a site revolving around mocking cringe is that the cringe can follow you

seriously though the kicking and screaming about normies appropriating ""geek culture"" is fucking embarrassing

There is a sizable difference between someone who owns a Nintendo Wii so that they can play mini game collections with their friends and someone who tries as hard as they can to act like an awkward and ill-adjusted nerd so that they can feel special and different.

Many nerds are embarrassing, but so are the fools who try to copy them.

These types of people will look at you funny if you hand them a peer-reviewed study, but will be more than eager to watch one of those Facebook videos or 5-10 minute youtube videos because they never go into any deep detail that requires dedication to the subject to learn the foundational material, but contain cool and interesting clickbait facts sold as science that these people can tell their friends about to impress them.

"Badness is of the self, the one, the you or me on our oddy knockies, and that self is made by old Bog or God and is his great pride and radosty. But the not-self cannot have the bad, meaning they of the government and the judges and the schools cannot allow the bad because they cannot allow the self. And is not our modern history, my brothers, the story of brave malenky selves fighting these big machines? I am serious with you, brothers, over this. But what I do I do because I like to do."
 
Well, to be fair, you guys are getting kinda cringey with all the REEE-ing about fake gamer girls and whatnot. "I'm a real nerd, u gaiz!!!!! Not like all those poser faggots!!!!"
 
It’s also led to an increase in hyper-defense nerds who try to chase out anyone who isn’t as knowledgeable as them when it comes to a particular show/game/franchise.

Don’t know which chapter Tom Bombadil shows up in? REEEEEEE FAKE NERD
Don’t know which issue Superman dies in? REEEEEEE FAKE NERD
Haven’t played the first Final Fantasy game? REEEEEEE FAKE NERD

It leaves people who are fans but not fanatics in an awkward place, stuck between dipshits who don’t actually know anything about the show/book/whatever and assholes who refuse to talk to anyone not on their level.

Clearly the term 'nerd' mutated a lot in the past couple of decades. It used to mean something completely different, a synonymous of 'Egghead' or 'someone inclined to hoard knowledge and factoids about one or multiple subjects; a social outcast who valued knowledge over physical fitness, social interaction or fashion sense' Gaming, Chess, Book reading, tabletop games, TV/movie binges and/or trivia were merely the nerd's PASTIMES, not their main focus or activity.

Today, anyone interested in any of these pastimes is considered a 'nerd'. You like videogames? You are a nerd. You played a few tables of D&D? Surely you are a nerd!. You binge watched 10 episodes of Gossip Girls? Wow, what a nerd! and so on. It is socially acceptable because the nerdy pastimes are socially acceptable and/or trendy, not their way of life so anytime someone who doesn't know shit about a TV series or a videogame claims they are 'nerdy fans', it will enrage the masses of misfits who consider themselves true fans or true nerds.

TL;DR: it's a moot point. The definition of nerd mutated so fast there aren't true 'nerds' anymore, at least not as they were defined 30 or so years ago.
 
Wow people seem upset by this thread

It's funny to laugh at tryhards and people who make asses out of themselves regardless of who they are, so while it can be frustrating to see a fandom or community go to shit, it is healthy to have some fun to go along with your frustration.

Something isn't quite right with Chobot.

 
Caring about whether people think you're a nerd or not is kind of against the point of being nerdy.
 
We haven't even started on the trash that is the Rick and Morty fan-base. A group of people who are autistic and think they are hyper intelligent because they think they are similar to a cartoon alcoholic who says things about science and god is funny and edgy.
 
Following up on the Rick and Morty fan-base... the same autistic fucks who lost their shit over a sauce at McDonalds. Halloween is going to be really bad this year, plenty of exceptional individuals dressing up as pickles :pickle: you've been warned.
