Nerd Fail

A nerd fail occurs when someone with exceptionally well grades (in the 95%ish area) receives anything below 85% on an assignment, quiz, test or exam.
It isn't a fail through the eyes of their peers, but to them THEY FAILED!

1: gah ...im so upset i got 83% on my science test. i failed.
2: you should be happy 83% is really good, totally not a fail.
1: 83% is a very big nerd fail to me.
