Ok, so after I went to my high school reunion I got the thinking.
First off, if you don't already know, Jer is a HUGE W.O.W. Geek! No, not "Oh WOW!", but World of Warcraft "WOW". he has always loved games, whether it was board games or video or computer. Games are for Jer. or Jer is for games... I'm not sure which.
Anywho....
So oftentimes when we go places Jer can't help but to make some random comment or joke that pertains to WOW. And quite often he gets odd looks for it. Then he mentions that I play WOW and I most definitely get odd looks for it. Cause, you know, GIRLS aren't into that stuff!!! :D What I find amusing about this is the fact that this game is wildly popular. I promise that I have met more people that play WOW than any other hobby I've ever had... and I'm not talking about meeting them "in-game" either.
You know when you are on a date and happen to be talking "WOW lingo" and your waitress gets all chummy and excited about it with you... that you can't be THAT weird.
So, I've come to believe that everyone is a nerd in some way. Not necessarily with World of Warcraft, maybe Star Wars, board games, collecting random figurines, or maybe some other "nerdy" vice. I tend to find people that admit they are nerds in some fashion really fun to be around, cause lets face it... to some extent they really don't care that people think they are nerds!!! yay empowerment! :D
NERDS UNITE!!!
PS I found this article to be HIGHLY amusing.
