gamma nerd

A nerd's nerd; a man who takes his nerd-hood to the next level and beyond the pale of mainstream nerd stigma and stereotype. He is often the result of his need to retain his nerd-identity even amidst and within an all-nerd environment. Because of the high degree of intensity and the elite status one must exibit, there can be no gamma nerd under the age of 18. They must be an adult. They can often be known by their lighning-fast and razor-sharp come-backs and put-downs, especially toward lesser nerds. Due to the high-level obscurity of their interests and esoteric nature of their jokes and allusions, the gamma nerd can never be an object of popular culture or even known to the mainstream like the regular nerd because the layman would be unable to make head nor tail of the gamma nerd. Unless you attend an engineering school and move within the proper circles, chances are that you will live and die without ever having seen one.

Reuben: yo man, i was creeping around the basement of the engineering building on campus at 3am and i opened this door and BAM! there's like 10 guys in there dancing to medival chamber music that they programmed on unix to run on an original nintendo cartridge and some of them were dressed like cartoon characters!
Roger: Gamma nerds!

Nerd's nest

A tangled cluster of wires resembling a bird's nest, usually but not necessarily found at the back of a computer.

I tried to unplug my old mouse, but its such a nerd's nest back there that my speakers came unplugged.

Nerd Cred

The points you get by doing nerdy things. Makes you cooler and able to have lengthy discussions with other nerds.

"My nerd cred is going to significantly diminish if I don't see the Doctor Who finale tonight!"

safety nerd

A person who lives, breathes and thinks about workplace safety to an unhealthy and unsociable extent. Always on the lookout to get "musculo-skeletal disorder" into ordinary conversation in the deluded hope the person listening will be impressed. Avoided at parties.

"I thought we'd get something done in the meeting, but it was wall-to-wall safety nerds: I thought my brain was going to explode after an hour.

Neo-Nerd

A new evolution of the traditional nerd, the neo-nerd is one who grew up being bullied for various social offenses of the day (ie. playing Dungeons and Dragons, playing a “wussy instrument” like the tuba, collecting stamps, etc.) and now as an adult assimilates into society and uses the skills or knowledge from his nerd experiences to make life better for the greater public. The very essence of what it is to be cool in the modern age.

Wow! That neo-nerd just fixed my iPhone and didn't charge me for it.
