A term used to label a person (often female but could be male) who is academically gifted, but has a terrible personality and terrible appearance to match with it — all while trying to seduce and prey on any single or taken person.
This video game convention after party is full of nerd hoes. Their dull gazes are following me and it’s really making me uncomfortable. Oh wait, are they trying to seduce me from afar? Ew—

Get the Nerd Merchant mug.This is a subject adopted by a nerd to conceal his or her typical intellectual pursuits. The selected subject is often something not associated with nerd/geek culture but the nerdy persona can invest his or her intellectual capacity into. Instead of seeming pedantic the knowledge of the subject may be seen as admirable. The subject can be almost anything such as sports, agriculture, beer, cars, or crafts.
The interest goes beyond being a hobby as the nerd using nerd cover will either avoid or down play other subjects that might reveal their innate personality. Nerd cover can be used to redirect a conversation from traditionally nerdy subjects to being used to dilute obvious nerdiness in an individual's interests.

"Man, Brian seems like a total nerd."
"Maybe, but did you know he keeps goats and chickens?"
"That's just his nerd cover, don't get him started on the latest zombie film."
"Wow, Warren's fantasy football team is unbeatable!"
"Yeah, football is his nerd cover. He's a mathematician so the numbers come naturally to him.

Get the Nerd Hole mug.Someone who has an obsession with studying the optimal protocols in terms of diet training and supplementation to in the words of Elliot Hulse "become the strongest versions of themselves". Said people are characterized by frequented analysis of studies, obsessive record keeping, and spending almost if not all of their free time in a gym of some kind, and for whatever reason tend to correct EVERYONE they run into at a gym.
In the context of training:
*someguy bragging about how good distance running is for conditioning *
Guy 1: Oh man this guy really knows what he talking about
Strength nerd: Eh, not really. He doesnt take into account the fact that increasing the capacity of the aerobic energy system without developing a solid base of strength will limit our overall work capacity, prevent the development of the anaerobic system which we actually use in *insert sport name here* and leave us weak and out of shape. Our time would best be spent doing heavy deadlifts.
In the context of dieting:
Guy1: To lose weight you need to eat 5-6 times a day every 2-3 hrs. It increases the thermic effect of food
Strength nerd: Well it doesnt really work that way. The thermic effect of food is diactated by ones over all caloric intake over a certain period of time so increasing meal frequency would accomplish nothing.
In the supplement context:
Guy1:You need to take a whey protein shake exactly 30 minutes after your workout
Strengthnerd: While taking a protein shake is a good idea muscle protein synthesis is elevated for up to 36 hrs after you have stimulated a muscle group leaving a far larger window than 30 minutes postworkout. I certainly wouldn't recommend waiting say 8 hrs. there is really no need to rush
