Someone who is a academically committed. It is usually not a good thing when it gets to extreme (complaining to the teachers about empty syllabi, unprofessional behavior etc.) Anyway, there are a lot of misconceptions about nerds. Here are a few:
1. Someone can act and look totally nerdy, but is an amazing athlete. Likewise, someone can look fit and great at playing cool, but can'
t play sports to save their life.
2. Nerds can act like nerds at
school, but when they get home, they are just like any regular
kid who is not a nerd (maybe even more awesome!) This is sometimes but not
always caused by
parents who are very strict about academic performance.
Jock: You're a nerd I'm gonna
beat the shit outta you!
Nerd: All right.
Jock: *punches a double punch*
Nerd: *blocks it and side thrusts in the Jocks face which immediate knocks jock dead.* I'm gonna go out and play some football with the Jocks!
