Real Nerds Are Ashamed to Be Called Nerds

Nowadays, it seems "cool" and "hip" to be a nerd, but real nerds are ashamed to be called a nerd.You can't call yourself a nerd just because you're a "gamer," or you surf the Interwebs, or you wear glasses, that just makes you a wannabe.

A real nerd is shy, a loner, enjoys role playing (we're not talking the sexy-time version) and really needs those glasses to see.

"But I spend hours on the web!"

That's not enough, spending hours on the Interwebs looking at pictures of cats, sharing what you just shoved down your gullet, or Twittering your latest thought just makes you a troll.

The nerds are the people who created these sites your wasting your time on, and for that, you should be thankful the world has nerds.

This PSA, 'The More You Knerd' brought to you by the Portland Nerd Council, is an honest and heart-warming message from a real nerd!
