Don't need to go that far.
Just needs to put her hand high up on his thigh and he'll have a breakdown.

Ahahahaha. Winnar!

No offense Sidoh but that line is getting old.

I don't like the words "nerd" and "geek" as a form of self-identity -- it's vague, trite, and at the same very provincial. The words were originally intended to mean that someone is smart, but I personally don't see it this way; to me they mean nothing more than a lack of self-confidence, and an inability to identify oneself outside of a few very narrow interests. The people who constantly identify themselves as a "nerd" or "geek" are usually pretty annoying. (You're an exception, of course!)

I can do little more than roll my eyes.

I view a nerd as someone who is proud of their obsession with all matters academic.  I like these kinds of people.  Therefore, I think nerds are awesome.  If you don't like that, I suspect you'll get over it.

In order to to quell your driveling, I changed my title to Señor Floppysocks.

I agree with Sidoh, and consider myself a nerd.

I was exaggerating a little, or maybe a lot; everyone calls themselves a nerd at times. But the identifier is extremely convoluted, with many mixed connotations. It presents one less as an individual, and more as a manufactured image, which is why many people who lack self-confidence use it -- it's a crutch. But I don't mean to generalize about all people who use the word frequently; I'm just pointing out some criticisms on the culture of the word.

Agreed. I guess it might be a little overdone because a lot of people on this forum probably are or consider themselves nerds, but it never gets old to me. I'm very proud of the fact that I'm a nerd and a geek, even if I'm not the most 'qualified', even for a girl.

I do hate that fact that there's a lot of "nerd"  merchandise (like girl T-shirts that say 'I <3 Nerds') that is overdone and worn by people that have in fact no idea what being a nerd is, or proceed to rebuke people for being 'nerdy'. That's always bugged me.

Why do you feel the need to attach the negative connotations to the word? Also, I find your definitions for said words to be very lax.
