Nerdjerking

Very similar to nerdjacking, but when a person digresses into extreme detail about any and every uninteresting topic. While a nerdjacker tends to "go into extreme and/or unnecessary detail about one’s passion," the nerdjerker will go on about any given subject and usually has very little or absolutely no expertise on the topic (although they speak with such detail that the naive could be fooled into thinking the nerdjerker actually knows what he/she is talking about). Nerdjerking is not aimed at only one passion, as the typical nerdjerker is passionate about any random, irrelevant, topic.

It's easy to fall victim of a nerdjerker's tangent. Regardless of your obvious lack of interest in the topic; nerdjerkers will continue talking until you run away. No matter what, do not respond or input your opinion. This will only cause the person to believe that you actually care about what he/she is talking about and will continue on with an increased passion.

Jane: I accidentally mentioned the economy to Alice and she went off for an hour about how the cost of pens are the cause for poverty. I had no clue what she was even talking about.

Jamie: Yea, you've got to be careful. Alice loves nerdjerking and there is no stopping her once she starts talking. Never mention and of her exes or she will nerdjerk for hours.

Nerd

A studious and smart person who gets made fun of by haters. Nerds are not necessarily the 1960's stereo type with bottle cap glasses, suspenders, button shirts with pens in a shirt pocket, ect. Some nerds are good looking, some are smart, and some are both. Nerds are academicly advanced. However, most nerds are still socially challenged. Nerds are loners. :)

Nerd Majeure

Derived from force majeure. The irresistible compulsion (exclusive to otaku and other nerds) to correct, or at least point out, inconsequential petty mistakes or inconsistencies in language, reproduction or representation.

My overwhelming desire to be pedantic with this Urban Dictionary entry is a result of nerd majeure.

I am compelled by nerd majeure to point out that in frame 3754 of (random anime movie), the alien's third tentacle has no shadow.

Nerd Yoga

n. The bizarre contortions that are performed by tech support people to get at hard-to-reach equipment. Often practitioners surprise observers because they appear otherwise incapable or averse to any physically strenuous activity.

User #1: Did you get your mouse working again?
User #2: Turns out it was just unplugged. The IT guy came up and did a little Nerd Yoga to get it back in.
User #1: That guy can really bend himself into weird shapes.
User #2 True dat.
