vintage nerd

A Vintage Nerd is an old school nerd predating video games and computers.

Mom "I'm a nerd". Son "You're not a nerd, you don't know anything about video games or computers". Mom "that's because I'm a vintage nerd, I've been a nerd long before video games and computers."

Nerd-Picking

The same as Nit-Picking but what nerds do with beloved franchise sequels/prequels.

"Han shot first! Greedo never fired! And he missed from two feet away!"
"Dude you're nerd-picking!"

nerd rain

The phenomenon where a significant population of nerds begin sweating at a conference with an intensity so strong that the heat from the room evaporates the nerdy sweat and condensates the abominable liquid at the roof of the conference, resulting in a roof showering the conference goers with an odoriferous acid rain.

Comic con is not liable for diseases contracted from nerd rain during this session.

Nerd School

A college which primarily concentrates on teaching science, technology, engineering, and math. Noted for their high acceptance standards, high fail-out and drop-out rates, dearth of female students, and copious consumption of alcohol by students (and professors).

A good indicator of a nerd school is that its name includes the word "Tech". For example: Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, Cal Tech, Rensselaer PolyTECHnic, Worcester PolyTECHnic, Massachusetts Institute of TECHnology.

If you haven't been to college and are wondering what life would be like at a nerd school, watch the movie "Real Genius".

Jim: I didn't get a single date in my whole first year of college.
Dave: Of course you didn't, you went to a total nerd school!

Nerd Army

The nerd army is a group full of nerd wannabes which also spend most of the time smelling each other's farts.

I am in the nerd army now, that means I have to be cocky of the amount of fictional things I know.

Nerd's Rant

A phenomena in which a nerd enters a state of mind, in which they can no longer keep their thoughts in and decide to go to an open forum, a blog or anything similar and write out their thoughts, even though to most of the audience reading those thoughts will not be able to understand what they're ranting about clearly, usually it results in a jumbled wall of text and contradictions. These thoughts are only relevant to the nerd, even if you understand them.

"I'm unsure if I should get this processor, it'll boost my GHZ to 4.6, but I could just as easily buy this other processor that will only put it to 3.2 but will work better with this motherboard I'm looking at." - Rough Example of a Nerd's Rant.
