Get the nerdstered mug.Nerdsplaining occurs when a nerd hears a topic they love and obsess over and can't contain themselves from telling you everything they know about it. Nerdsplaining is about overwhelming excitement on a nerd's favorite subject, not about being condescending in an effort to feel superior.
I mentioned that I liked the Iron Man movie to my little brother and he couldn't help but nerdsplain the entire MCU history to me.

Get the later nerds mug.The biggest idiots on the planet. They pretend to be geeks or nerds to be cool.
You see, if you're like me, you've been called a nerd or a geek your whole life. Then you see these jackasses walking along, speaking in 1337 in REAL LIFE like idiots, using terms like "uber" and "w00t," professing how much of a nerd they are. They have tons of friends and everyone seems to like them.
Meanwhile, you and your lonely, virgin for life friends sit watching in disgust, wondering why someone would WANT to be a nerd.
Why would someone want to be like you and your friends, talking too loud or too quiet, being socially awkward, and being the only people you know who have never touched a girl? Are people stupid?
The answer is a definite yes.
