a refined nerd is someone who is a nerd in just about every sense of the term: they typically are highly intelligent, excellent with computers, watch Star Trek, play roleplaying games such as World of Warcraft, Warhammer, and Dungeons and Dragons, can recite Monty Python verbatum, edit Wikipedia, collect comic books and action figures, watch anime, read Tolkein and CS Lewis, go to the releases of Harry Potter at midnight, go to or work at historical reinactments and reniassance faires, and play chess, yet have a social life, dress nicely, play sports, and just by looking at them you'd probably never guess they're a nerd.
Hi, i'm Annie the refined nerd. i have a whole room dedicated to my comic books, my favorite way to procrastinate is to play World of Warcraft, I know how to program computers, i got straight a's in school, i've cut class just so i could re-read the Harry Potter books, i've watched every Star Trek series and i went as an Enterprise security officer for Halloween(the guys were all over me), i know all the songs from Spamalot, i dust my collection of action figures that i won in cosplay contests daily, i've read all the LOTR books and seen the movies, i've worked at a reniassance faire, and i play DnD every Friday with some friends i know from my fencing class. i wear glasses for reading, but they're flattering torotiseshell frames, not coke bottle glasses held together with masking tape. when I can't buy clothes at Comic Con, I buy them from Macy's or even Hollister. and oh yes, i don't stick pens in my shirt pocket and i wouldn't be caught dead in highwaters!

Someone who is obsessed with band (and wants everyone to know it). A band nerd is usually obnoxious about being in band. They have nothing else going on in their life. Don’t confuse this with someone who tries hard in band or a regular member of a school band.

Band nerds are kiddos who play in band, and more commonly are in marching band. They literally live in the band room; they ARE the band. Band nerd is seen to others as an insult, but is actually quite affectionate.
"Hey Jessie, how was your weekend?"
"Oh! It was great. I didn't have any free time since there was a competition on Saturday, and I practiced even though we wouldn't be using the music anymore. Speaking of practice, band is in 2 hours, I can't be late. Bye Lina!"
*as she walks away*
"Jesus, Jessie is SUCH a band nerd..."

A person who uses pop culture, such as comic books, novel and film franchises (e.g marvel, Star Wars, LOTR, etc) to lure unsuspecting real fans into their clutches or to trick others into thinking they are alternative. They do this with the goal of receiving attention from others, typically a nerd baiter can be identified by asking anything more than surface level knowledge about the fandom in which they claim to subscribe to.
Friend 1: Dam bro look at this girl, she’s way into Star Wars, how cool
Friend 2: Nah bro, she’s just a nerd baiter, she couldn’t even recite the entirety of the tragedy of earth plaguise the wise. What a faker.
