A person characterized by strongly nerdy or socially awkward traits, often showing intense interest in academic, niche, or unconventional topics. A dorkian may also larp. The term is informally associated with individuals named Dorion, though it can be applied more broadly to describe anyone whose behavior combines intellectual enthusiasm, awkwardness, and a tendency toward role-like or exaggerated self-presentation. They are also usually a chud and or a fat unemployed glob.
Examples:
“Bro really started explaining quantum physics at lunch… that’s dorkian.”
“He was larping as a main character in the hallway—lowkey dorkian.”
“Only a dorkian would bring flashcards to a football game.”
“Why are you acting like a supervillain in math class? That’s mad dorkian.”
“Dorion correcting the teacher again… classic dorkian move.”

The Picture of Dorian Gray 

This book is a great cautionary tale for all my friends who want emo boyfriends. With all the murderers, it'll be a miracle if not one person thinks “I can fix him.” You know, if you're into that sort of thing. Did you see how his last relationship ended? Stay safe out there, ladies.

I have to say that there was not a lot of good representation in this book. If I wanted to see white men fuck everything up I'd turn on the news. And how can Basil describe Dorian as his “artist muse” and they didn’t kiss once?! Queerbait much, Oscar Wilde?

All I can say is, if Oscar Wilde claims that Dorian Gray really is hot, we can only assume Dorian had a different haircut than Oscar. If Dorian is as useless as he seems, the least he can do is look good while doing it.

Great book if you are the “queer teenager” demographic, and not the “old man who was made to read it in grade school” demographic. Either way you're picking up on the gay subtext.
Person 1: "Are you reading The Picture of Dorian Gray?"
Person 2: "No. Im reading The Picture of Dorian Gay."
