RE: Getting your geek on!

in #life8 years ago

Same thing with the term "nerd." It used to mean someone who excels in academic subjects, particularly math and science. Now it means a person who is into comic books. No sorry... that's a "dummy." Western culture is devolving. No doubt about it.

Sort:  

Why does being into comics make you a "dummy"?

Well, I guess if you're 7 years old you can have a pass, but at some point children should move on to more challenging books. I know grown adults who absolutely love comic books, and they call themselves nerds. They aren't nerds, they're dummies.

People are allowed to read for pleasure. Not every book needs to be challenging intellectually.

Truth! I think people should read whatever makes them feel comfortable :)
