    That NERD talk. I think this should be discussed on Steve's Forum.

        Seeing as how this is in the gaming section I'd say in my opinion a nerd is someone who plays strategy games... yea... like I said that's my opinion
        Why did I move here? I guess it was the weather.

            This topic is different than anything else because the word can mean so many different things.

              My opinion ?

              Almost everyone alive is a nerd. I think a nerd could be anyone who is passionate about any particular thing.

              For me it's sports and games..

                Fans of Star Wars, Star Trek, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Pokemon, Warcraft, and Magic the Gathering.

                I'm proud to say that i haven't done or seen any of these. I guess you could call me a sports nerd. If there is such a thing.

                I now realize i could be the most hated poster on OS.

                  I'd rather be a sports nerd than a normal nerd. Lol. Nerd has many meanings.

                      Pretty much this. If you are on this website, you are probably a nerd for sports and video games.

                      Your implication is that there's something bad about like Star Wars, Star Trek, LoTR, Harry Potter, Pokemon, Warcraft, or tabletop card/board/miniatures games. Quite simply, there isn't. There really isn't a reason to be proud of not liking something.

                      Also, a sports nerd is a nerd. You are a nerd. I am a nerd. We are all nerds.

                            not long ago, a nerd is someone considered boring because of their obsessive hobby or narrow solitary interests and because they're boringly studious. and nowadays it's somewhat like...being a nerd is cool?
                            nerds underwent evolution this generation? lmao

                              Get back to working on Madden! If the game is terrible, which it probably will be, then I am putting all of the blame on YOU!
