Who's a Nerd?



The Nerduary, for all things nerdy. This blog is a sanctuary for all the nerds out there. The question is who is a nerd? Am I a nerd? Well I like Star Wars, Star Trek, video games, comics, and certain cult TV shows. Does this make me a nerd? When I was in High School I played football, and pole-vaulted. I played rugby in college, I was in a frat for 3 semesters, hell I still play rugby occasionally. According to pop-culture movies I'm a jock, and therefore am not a nerd. Am I an inigma?


Well one thing is for sure these guys are nerds!







Are Jango and Boba Fett nerds? I say 'Hell no!' They are bad-ass bouty hunters. Now the guy who built a Jango Fett suit in his mom's basement is a nerd, but he's got a girl on his arm.


Are all people who dress up as characters from 'nerdy' movies a nerd? Can hot chicks be nerds? Well if so I wanna get into this nerdy storm troopers armor.


I'm going to leave my opinion out of this post for now, but I ask you what makes someone a nerd? Once a nerd, always a nerd? Is being a nerd a bad thing? Can the 'beautiful people' be nerds? Am I a nerd?

Crossovers are possible. Look at Ogre from "Nerds" and Betty too.

I think we really fall under the term "geek", as they can come in all shapes and sizes, where as "nerds" generally have that glasses and pocket-protector stereotype.

Lots of people are cross overs, it's just a matter of being able to function in society while still geeking-out when you want to or in certain situations.
