If you don't let the word nerd affect you with bad feelings, the post is pretty OK.
I don't think nerd is a bad thing to say anymore.
Also I can identify me with this personality. Last few years I can find myself turning more into bitterness and I just started realising that the cause is not external.
- eplanit 5y agoI like to be clear and differentiate between "dorks" and "nerds". Dorks are insufferable by definition. Nerds might sometimes act like dorks (ex: talking about bitcoin throughout a dinner), but nerds have, on balance, more redeeming qualities than the dork. There is a lot of overlap in the definition of the two[1][2]. I don't hear "dork" used much anymore -- it should be used more.
