US NERDS XD - People trying so hard to be nerdie™ to be different, and are only faggots

[ToroidalBoat]

I thought the "US" meant America. Is this "US NERDS" thing just an American thing anyway?

I miss the 80s/90s nerd stereotype a lot because it used to be a branding you'd earn by being really really into a particular field.

Sounds like the Japanese concept of otaku -- while it seems to normally mean anime otaku, there are train otaku, computer otaku...

Normies grrr I hate those autists. Wait....

I feel like people are taking the assumption people in this thread are mad. We were just laughing at cringy shit.

It’s pathetic and laughable to be the virgin nerd who feels superior to anyone who shows a passing interest in their fandom while unconditionally looking down upon them. We have plenty of threads of all kinds based around them in Community Watch.

But it’s also laughable for people to try to act like the virgin nerd in their superiority complex when they have very little knowledge of the media itself.

In addition, some fads are simple laughable in themselves, such as the fidget spinner fad, which can involve both normal and autistic people while still being laughable. Nobody who follows a silly fad has to be someone to look down upon as a whole or somebody to get mad at. The exceptional individuals within the fad will generally be laughed at more.

Also aren't the Nerds actually the ones that do math while the Geeks are Artistic(autistic) ones?

nerds are the pedantic ones that win internet arguments by correcting your grammar and geeks are the weeaboos

This thread is filled with powerlevel, don't deny that. Anything that starts with "As a real fan of this thing/as an actual gamer girl" is an overreaction to something that doesn't matter at all and is taken way too personal, as if your life depends on it. It's probably better to take the occasion to distance yourself from your geekiness a bit, aye? Try somethin new like gardening or something

On the topic of the nerdy themed weddings, this image was making the rounds around the anti-normie subreddits recently.

Wow. That’s pure Pooh’s adventures :autism: right there.

I actually like the one on the left better. It has a CR-TV head with camera lens eyes and a normal body. Isn't this thing supposed to be a robot?

Yo did my "actual gamer girl" joke fly over your head a bit buddy? Or the fact that I explicitly called gaming a "non-productive" hobby? I guess sarcasm is hard to translate over the internet.

Also if you think I can't be autistic about my gardening hobby let me tell you about my glorious fall-blooming asters and all the insect species they attract. I even saw a monarch butterfly the other day!

 

[The Valeyard]

I guess I don't mind so much the normies hopping on the nerd train but more the fact that the so called fringe hobbies and nerdy fandoms becoming so mainstream means they are utterly souless now. Couple that with merchandising and it's almost repellant to a lot of the original fans of the IP.

Nobody needs half the Star Wars merch shit they put out, honestly. You can like Star Wars without plastering yourself in it like a giant 'i have no personality' beacon.

>merchandising hasn't been part of Star Wars since the beginning.

I don't think anyone said that though. Unless its the obvious grrlgamers amirite? reeeeee joke

 

[AnOminous]

Some of these people whining about this thread were probably actually bullied by nerds.

 

[Kiwi Jeff]

bullied by nerds

 

[MarvinTheParanoidAndroid]

You think being a star wars nerd means you know a lot of obscure star wars shit that no one cares about? Fuck you misogynerd, star wars is about strong female and poc protagonists. Women are funny and talented, get over it.

This whole thread is a honeypot disguised as a community watch thread, as always.

being told that i should have used a full stop instead of a semicolon is literally abuse and it gave me ptsd ree

 

[Genghis Khan]

This thread should be moved to the Salt Mine, and tagged with Locally Sourced. Or moved to the Spergatory, for the autism to remain manifest for the rest of eternity, because Jesus-gobbling-Christ, this is reaching Entersphere levels of spastic ire and butthurt.

 

[Sinner's Sandwich]

Most of this "fake" nerd or whatever stuff in this thread isn't bad. I don't see the problem.

"Omg someone wears a shirt with the word nerd! Fucking normie!!!1"

"Omg a couple has 10 dolls of some star wars character! Faaaake!1"



Wtf. So much :autism: here.

 

[Surtur]

Jesus fucking Christ, this thread is far more autistic than I expected it to be and thats a goddamn accomplishment.

 

[MarvinTheParanoidAndroid]

I like how in that example, it's two of the most mainstream metal bands of the 80's, but no mention of Metallica because that'd be too mainstream.

 

[wagglyplacebo]

lol these people are making more money on the stuff you guys were into F1RST111!!one
im sorry that is so horrible.

oh noes and they're getting laid too
the tragedy

such cows.

If you don't like the thread then don't read it bro seriously.
This is one of the few threads that make me laugh regardless if its the videos of people crying because they got something wrong in zelda or kiwis crying about someone getting something wrong in zelda.
Thread changed to diseased by the way lmao.

 

[linchan]

Half the people in the my school qualifies for this. There usually are a ton of these kinds of people coming in nerdy clubs in the first few weeks, they leave after a while.
