The quick head-tilt of mutual respect when two geeks recognize each other’s rare tech, custom gear, or deep-cut fandom.
Example 1:
I whipped out my Steam Deck and got a Nerd Nod from the guy across the café.
Example 2:
She saw my mechanical keyboard with artisan keycaps and gave me the Nerd Nod.

Get the Nerd mug.Someone who lives primarily in darkness. Probably likes warhammer 40k, and uses Henry Cavill as an excuse as to why it's cool. They think the fact that they play Dark Souls makes them cool, but it really just cements the fact that they are a nerd. They might also vape unironically.

Get the nerd mug.A nerd wearing tighty-whities, i.e. white briefs. Has been culturally seen as the nerd type of underwear for decades, often made fun of and leading the wearer to become a victim of wedgies and pantsings.
At schools and other places, as well as culturally, as boxers and then boxer-briefs became popular, tighty-whities came to be seen as nerdy – partly because of their feminine shape, which is why briefs are sometimes also called manties or male panties.
In popular culture, this can for example also be seen in movies, TV shows etc., where most of the times whenever there is a nerdy character he wears tighty-whities, or when someone is being pantsed in a funny scene or becomes wedgied they usually wear tighty-whities.
In this day and age, because of this social stigma, you cannot really be seen wearing tighty-whities without being seen as nerdy by a lot of people, since it has become such a big part of popular culture and is portrayed in this way in movies, on television, talkshows etc. Avoid wearing if you do not wish to be wedgied, pantsed or made fun of for your underwear, since this is what tighty-whities has come to represent in popular culture.
