Q: This looks shopped.

I think the answer should be obvious.

A nerd, in my opinion, is someone who is not accepted as much in society, so he/she turns to other things for "comfort" such as video games, computer, technology, schoolwork, etc. Just because someone is smart doesn't make them a nerd. I'm not sure what to classify myself because I do very well in school, but I'm very athletic and have a lot of friends. Its all just a matter of your own personal classifcation of people. Being a nerd isn't a bad thing, just like being a jock isn't neccessarliy a good thing.

Nerds are people with Quixotic minds, fascinated with worlds unlike their own.

Nerds are everything that people have said so far. Once you get out in the real world you become a specialist (or expert) and are no longer a nerd XD.

i'm just posting these links and quotes here since I cant bookmark them from work.

http://reconstruction.eserver.org/011/GeekCulture.htm

"In greater society, most people still perceive comics as childish and simple, and deride comic book readers as nerds. Brown examines this process in the history of Dr. Frederic Wertham, whose accusations of comics as a cause of juvenile delinquency led to Senate subcommittee hearings and the formation of the Comics Code self-regulation standard for the industry. This hostility, Brown contends, arises because fan cultures challenge the tastes the bourgeouis have established and naturalized through the control of institutions such as universities, museums, and art galleries. Comic book fandom offends society by applying standards of appreciation and intense scrutiny to popular texts that the dominant class reserves for elite texts. Comic book culture has a canon of its own, and increasingly considers authors and artists as markers of canonical value."

When you are on the computer for hours on end.
When you take a test on the computer to see if you are a nerd.
You cheat on the test so you can tell your AIM friends your not a nerd.
You go on more than 5 forums.

I'm a nerdX2

I think "It's just a flesh wound!" would be more noticible, while still retaining it's nerdy movie qualities.

I saw this show where this group of gamers went on a killing spree in their school and killed like 10 people with semi-automatics.

There is no possibility that knowing this is would be a nerd quality. It's the difference between being culturally average or a shut-in.

Nerd.

I think it's someone who accels at everything they do. No one likes nerds because they are the top of their class. Then the jocks get yelled at for not being top of their class and not acceling at everything except, penis size. And us nerds pwn the jock's 2.14 GPA with my personal 3.85 GPA.
