[2011-Nov-19] Terrible Graph Joke

[Edminster]

Anecdotal Evidence is the best kind of Evidence!

[DonRetrasado]

But you don't understand, a non-nerd has never had any of those things before. After all, where's HIS anecdote??

[Tori]

See, I assumed it was about the fact that nerds just have so much to cool stuff to be excited to be about as they get older. (By nerd, I guess I mean science geek.) Science is advancing so quickly that there're new discoveries every day, and there will only be more in the future.

[Eisbreaker]

I sure hope so, I live in constant fear that one day we will run out of science.

Too bad for those other people who have other interests and can't possibly care about science.

[DonRetrasado]

Yeah, what if you're a nerd who's really into violence?

[Gadren]

I think being a nerd is great if you fully embrace being a nerd. You can't just half-ass it. My life improved about 500% around age 22 when I decided to crank my nerd up to the max, and have been very happy ever since.

For example, my fiance and I LOVE being nerds. We met at comic-con, like to dress up in costumes like freaks, play an unhealthy amount of video games, go to the geekiest parties, produce a webcomic, play D&D, and quote nerdy movies at EVERY given opportunity. When I proposed to her, it was at comic-con, and was the culmination of a scavenger hunt involving volunteer cosplay steampunk mad scientists, the venture brothers, and troopers from the 501st.

Life is good.

produce a webcomic

which one

I just can't believe that nobody got the joke the way I did.
Nerd's life gets better over time because tech & science improves the same way.
So while a normal person goes unhappy with turning old and loved ones dying,
nerds goes more and more happy with the new stuff that yonger nerds are continuos developing.

[DonRetrasado]

Oh yeah, I forgot. Nerds don't age like people.

[Oldrac the Chitinous]

It's not that, so much, they just don't have any loved ones.

[DonRetrasado]

Much like Orson Welles in Citizen Kane, nerds only love on their own terms.

[Gadren]

produce a webcomic

which one

It's called Twice Blessed. It just started, so there isn't too much to look at yet. But you can find it at http://www.twiceblessedcomic.com
If only I was as witty as Zach in my writing.

[Lukelulz]

Oh yeah, I forgot. Nerds don't age like people.

I didn't mean they don't age, It's only that they don't really care much about it, they mind more about tech. I don't know, the joke is terrible anyways

[sotic]

ITT: people think nerds are universally and intrinsically different from non-nerds
