Nerd Sniping

1. The act of presenting someone, often a mathematician/physicist with a time consuming problem or challenge (often impossible to solve or complete) in the hopes of it appealing to a person's obsessive tendencies.

2. Doing the thing above in a situation where the obsession may lead to bodily harm (in the original context on the middle of a road where they will get inevitably run-over by a truck).

1. The XKCD comic "Click and Drag" nerd sniped me! I never expected it to take so long to explore.

2. There's a certain type of brain that is easily disabled. If you show it an interesting problem it involuntarily drops everything else. This lead me to the development of a new sport: Nerd Sniping.

Nerd jock

Unlike what other definitions here are saying, nerdjocks don't necessarily need to be neither smarter than their peers nor physically superior. A nerdjock is simply someone who is both a nerd and a jock - that is obsessed with both nerdy topics like school, maths, comics, etc and physical activities like gym, running, football, rugby, etc.

Also contrary to what the other answers have you believe, a lot of nerdjocks actually struggle to fit in in any social group not only because they feel out of place in both nerd and jock groups, but also because a lot of them are just plain odd.

Jock: hey, you know John? Apparently he hangs out with some nerds, eugh, let's leave him to his business with the nerds!
Nerds: hey, you know John? Apparently he is just a jock only hanging out with us to feel smarter about himself. Let's leave him to his business with the jocks!
John, the nerd jock:🤷 ♂️

hip nerd

This updated version of the classic nerd comes equipped with an appreciation for music, fine art, and food. While not losing touch with his nerd heritage, the hip nerd is more socially accepted and able to matriculate into mainstream society by combining a love of technology with witty conversation and self-deprecating humor. Often underestimated in high school and college, the hip nerd often rises to the top rungs of society, winning the hearts of otherwise unobtainable women.

Examples of a hip nerd include Peter Gibbons, Chuck Bartowski, Robert Stephens

Nerd Nest

The tangled web of chords and cables behind a PC.

The nerd nest behind my desk is out of control.
