Nerd

A person who knows a lot about something you don't understand.
So, just because I think it's a little funny the performance increased exactly Phi times when I optimized my quantum entanglement simulation program by introducing SSE3 instructions, you call me a nerd? Gee, you are so BIOS, I mean biased.

Nerd

It's not necessarily a bad thing or a good thing; it's just a characteristic.

A nerd is unusually smart, esp. in math, science, and/or computers. He or she tends to know a lot about pop culture, yet, ironically, often doesn't have great social skills. Usually has a great sarcastic, witty sense of humor (deriving from the knowledge of pop culture). Well-rounded, but just can't express him/herself to non-nerdy people well.

Examples:
Seth Cohen on "The O.C." (the best example)
Shia LaBoeuf's character in "Transformers"
The "I'm a Mac" guy in "Live Free or Die Hard"

Geek, dork, and dweeb, on the other hand, tend to have negative connotations.

Guy 2: I think the women are tired of jerks and want someone who'll treat them nice and take care of them.
Guy 1: Yeah. So you want to get wasted and treat women like meaningless objects?
Guy 2: Yeah! Let's go!

nerding

nerding is soon to become the new pimping, its not about train spotting, playing chess, collecting stamps or jizzing at the sight of a star wars film. Nerding is all about enjoying things as they are and being enthuseastic about it!!

So go enjoy yourself and start nerding it up!
