Nerd trap 

Making a reference to sci-fi/fantasy or comic books in which you purposely mix up the wrong character or facts to get a nerd to correct you.

Bill: "Hey Larry, did you know Boba Fett's first appearance was in an episode of Mork and Mindy?"

Nerd; "No it wasn't!" "It was on the Star Wars Holiday Special."

Bill: "Nerd trap!!!"

Using nerdy techniques to bring someone down.

For example, a girl named J is a mega nerd and she starts pulling out nerdy words to make a boy named A feel not so good. That is a fine of nerdtrap.
