I’m a dork. Huge difference. Nerds at least know things.
I’m not smart enough to be a nerd.
Yea I’m just weird
Nerd does not imply smart
I don’t read enough to consider myself a nerd; I’m kind of ignorant. But… I do like nerd topics.
I’m on the border of nerd and geek
No, I am a geek.
Is that the guy who had sex with his socks on?
Quit bullying us!
Na :3
Sodium to you as well, fellow nerd.
Of course not! There’s no furry nerds!
Never met a furry that wasn’t a nerd tbh x3
Iiiiii certainly amn’t!
DO NOT OBSERVE MY HISTORY TRUST ME I AM NOT
I’m a bona fide alpha male. Imagine Joe Rogan but more buff and with additional BDE. When I talk everyone listens. I was the star of every sports team I’ve been part of. I can lift a motocycle above my head and then ride off into the sunset on it.
Usually posting fit-pics on insta but I accidentally clicked a link and ended up here.

We’re early adopters. By definition: we’re nerds.
Who’s asking?
a nerd. I’m just wondering because I’d like it know if any normal people are leaving Reddit to use Lemmy. doesn’t look like it.
There were “normal” people on reddit?
Yes. That’s why quality keeps declining there.
Ah, that makes so much sense.
yeah, there’s a decent amount of people that use Reddit’s popular subs that aren’t terminally online.
pics or it didn’t happen
My dad looks at Reddit for advice on fixing our washing machine and similar stuff. And I’ve got friends that use it as a slightly more text-based pinterest
Goodness, you’re being very serious.
I’m not. College dropout waitress married to an artschool dropout chef.
I don’t believe you, you use Lemmy. You are at least somewhat nerd.
Ah, but I’m on the anarchist instance.
lol anarchists can be nerds
Let me explain you how the Red-Workers-Movement of 1922 in the Oblast-Utbackya had this structural issue in their organization by the theory of famous late 19th century analyst.
Liked and subscribed
So a political nerd lol
With politics, I think the term you want is “wonk”.
Not necessarily, a wonk (e.g. a policy wonk) is not analytically intelligent but may be emotionally intelligent.
A nerd and a wonk may have the same area of interest, but different approaches.
I’m on a piracy instance and I dont pirate.
Well, anymore. Should really update my music library instead of streaming it.
So your reasoning that you’re not a nerd is that you’re an anarchist? I got some bad news for you…
Oh no, I’m hella rad.
Noo…
they see me coming they go ‘nerd alert! 🚨’
j/k i got no friends i’m a nerd
Everyone is a nerd about something. That’s how interests work in general: you only ever get called a nerd for being interested in something that others aren’t interested in, but they’re also interested in stuff you’re not interested in, so…
I think you’re mixing up “nerd” and “geek” here.
Eh, I see them as fairly interchangeable. There’s some subtlety in the difference between them, but.
