- grogenaut 13y agoI thought nerd was a good term now a days. Just as other disparaged groups had done with their derogatory term to make it hip.
- WalterBright 13y agoI'm a nerd.
- grogenaut 13y agoWhy did I get a downvote? I said nerd was GOOD. And it's in no way an endemically racist term that needs to just be removed from the language no matter how much owning of the term can be done.
