TBF when you bring up Vocaloid Miku should be the first thing that comes to mind as the software is the most popular to date thanks to Crypton. Even then I don't consider vocaloid to be a nerd thing even when it clashes with weeb shit. @Michel what do you think bud?

I'd like it if vocaloid wasn't seen as a nerdy thing, but it probably always will be.

I genuinely don't understand the point of LootCrate. For the same amount of money, you could buy a really cool shirt/figurine/other collectable on eBay or Amazon or something. Getting one high-quality item that you really like is way better than getting a box full of cheap crap that hopefully contains one thing you kinda like.

As a collector, I have to wonder if these people actually know how to collect. There's way better stuff out there than Funko Pops and LootCrate boxes, you just have to look in the right places.

LootCrate is clever because it found a way to profit off of the inherent laziness of people in the same vein as Chris. If you're a lazy manchild who can't be arsed to get a job, move out of his parents' house, or do much of anything; LootCrate is perfect because it requires no thought or effort while still allowing you to burn a portion of your tugboat on your NerdHoard™.
 
I noticed that many of the people the thread makes fun dont go into anime too much, focusing on gaming and star wars. That seems to be a common thing where "geek culture" spreads across all sorts of sci fi movies and games and franchises except for anime, and its treated as a separate thing. Looks like it may just be too weird or out there for them, i guess.

Loot Crate IMO only makes sense to hoarders, autists, people who need to dress their YT sets, and people with no foresight. Who looks at this and decides it's something to aspire to?

Every surface of my house isn't covered in overglorified Happy Meal toys. Quick, I must spend $22 a month on an $8 T-shirt and a pile of random plastic shit that would otherwise be gathering dust at Big Lots until 2025. After just 12 months of this, I will have spent around $250, and a whole bookcase full of random shit I don't really care about. Great! Because what grown adult doesn't need another two giant plastic storage bins worth of shit they only halfway want to own in storage, like an albatross around your neck?

Dude, give Chris his due. He may have filled the entirety of his house not filled with Barbage with floor-to-ceiling autism, but at least he's actually chosen it all himself.

He's definitely better than LootCrate retards.

Well that's because as soon as you cross the line, you have gone from "Hey guys I'm such a nerd! XP" over to actual retard "desu desu desu desu" even regular people are wary of them.

It's interesting that being different is cool now but than its not cool because everyone does it.

RIP Nerd culture.

It's still not cool to be different because nerd "culture" is the current pop culture, if you're not a nerd, you're a retarded jock with bricks for brains, even if you have fringe interests with rich insights of the subject. One reason people are gluing themselves to the nerd label is because it is now synonymous with success, ushered in by the advent of home computers. Everyone wants to feel like they're Bill Gates.

It's like those people who first self diagnose and then armchair diagnose historical geniuses with a mental disorder, a desperate attempt at connecting themselves to brilliance by mimicking the things adjacent to it, not realizing that even if Einstein were an autist, which he wasn't, it wouldn't be the sole trait that tipped the balance of his intelligence into genius territory, rather simply that his life experiences tipped the balance. Would he have had the epiphany looking up at that clocktower that followed his theory of relativity without a genius IQ? Possibly, if it only rendered him with less scientific prose.

I think it's because culturally, Japan is quite different from the US, so there are a lot of aspects of anime that make it difficult to follow unless you're willing to work at it.

What I find quite interesting as a Britfag is that something like Doctor Who or Sherlock will enter the normie-nerddom pantheon, while something like Judge Dredd still remains niche outside the UK.

Elaborate on this silliness, please. It's pop culture schlock for kids and/or shut-ins, depicting absurdly jiggling tits.

Not once in the mearly 40 years I've been exposed to it have I felt intellectually overwhelmed in any way, shape, or form.

Blah blah Shinji jerking off in End of Evangelion blah blah blah.
