A man (usually 29-35) who uses the website Ancestry.com too much. They’ve been on the site since 2008, and have collected around 30,000 names. They’ve traced they’re family lineage back to mediaeval peasants by the time you figured out your grandma’s birthday.

A fish nerd is an individual who is very knowledgable and passionate about the keeping of fish in aquariums. This individual will talk for extended periods of time about their fish at any given moment. Not to be confused with a fish enthusiast. To tell the differentiate between the two, you need to ask the person what their opinion on fish bowls is. A fish enthusiast will act as though the practice of keeping fish in bowls is normal. A fish nerd will react as though fish bowls are an abomination. They will launch into a hour long lecture about how the practice is inhumane and cruel and explain the nitrogen cycle at great length.
Fish nerds are usually environmentally minded and are good to have next to you in a biology class. They are unfortunately very prone to aquaholism and MTS (multiple tank syndrome) if left to their own devices.

The use of an analogy or reference in conversation that is highly academic in nature. Knowledge of the particular reference typically requires advanced study - often in technical fields but is not strictly limited to such. The proper use of a nerd pimpslap will generally cause silence, bewilderment and/or a sense of shocked awe in the audience.
Nerd pimpslapping is the opposite of using analogy to explain complex academic topics. (i.e. using complex analogy to explain simple phenomena)
The reference maker is effectivly slapping his / her audience with academia that is so ostentatious, outlandish, and perhaps pretentious that any further argument is suffocated.
However, care must be taken not to attempt to nerd pimpslap those who are highly educated in the field of reference. Doing so may evoke a response with an even stronger nerd pimpslap.
Special note: pop cultural references to Star Trek, Star Wars and other icons of geekiness do not constitute a nerd pimpslap.

Our teacher asked who was the most important figure in the civil war so Tom gave her a nerd pimpslap, "Abraham Lincoln federated the north and the south like DB2 and Oracle".

A derogatory term for self-important tech start-up type people. Meant to convey both nerdiness and pompousness
Some nerd toucher taped me on the subway with his google glass.
this damn nerd toucher wouldn't shut up about his company's seed funding round
I'm sick of these fucking nerd touchers' damn google buses blocking the stop.
