Nerd Surfing is when someone (not necessarily a nerd) is surfing the internet, opening numerous, (generally informative) web pages. This includes sites such as Wikipedia. The essence behind nerd surfing is when the person sees a link(s) on one page, he/she opens the link 'in a new tab' or 'in a new window' and repeatedly does so until a chain of informative web pages are open all at once. This can often lead to a bizarre number of tabs being open, and can often create somewhat of a snowball effect.
Nerd Surfing is NOT when someone imitates surfing over a pile of upset nerds.

An effective way to tell someone to fuck off because they're talking too deep about a subject at an informal place and time. It's intended to get an over-reaction from the that person out of self-consciousness

A young boy who is obsessed with lego and can recall any lego figure or part from memory. They can also talk about lego for hours as it is the most exciting and interesting topic in the world to them. They have great delight in designing their own lego minifigs and older boys often video them and make documentaries which they then upload to YouTube.
Timmy: "Have you seen Sam's lego collection, he has an entire closet with draws full of lego all sorted by color and size!"
Seth: "Yes, he is such a Lego Nerd!"

An individual who goes beyond normal means to be portrayed as a nerd for the social acceptance/"cool factor" while having no actual "nerd" characteristics. Said person will dress like a nerd (faux glasses, 80's apparel, etc...) and throw out the occasional Star Wars or Star Trek reference, but has probably only seen one move/episode.
I asked Joe to fix my laptop, but it turns out he's just a novelty nerd and doesn't really know anything about computers.
