A portmanteau ( I hope I spelled it right) of Mexican and nerd. The merd in question is not necessarily Mexican or Mexican-American, but because
ignorant people like to call Latinos Mexican, then, any Latino who:
-Hangs only with other Merds or with the (Asian) Nerds (A MUST)
-May or may not have
Yellow fever
-Doesn't listen to Rancheras, Durangese, or any other typical Latin music
-Cannot get girls (or at least not Latinas...yuumm)
-Socially inept (Optional)
-Knows too much about computers (some IT- guys can still get laid ie Bill Gates)
is considered a Merd. This definition is brought to you by a
son of a bitch who decided to make this word up.
