A problem with elitist nerds

[The Rockerfly]

No stealth sections?

There were three I can think of off the top of my head, not counting any of the spec ops stuff.

And vehicles and weapons, and the slow motion breaching are all just set pieces. I wouldn't call them integral parts of the game.

Oh I meant the campaign, I actually found the specs ops missions to be the best part of that game
I would with the weapons, some bits are really stupidly difficult without them

Never encountered them in MW2. Not even the Care Package one.

A ton of hackers, yes, but no glitches.

Weird.

Luck of the draw I guess, I've had nothing but glitches. People hiding in the map, the care package glitch, level 10 prestige glitch and the glitches with vehicles moulding into each other

Holy shit, that's the last post I'd expect to ninja someone on

Yeah I know what you mean. My ex was an elitist nerd (my I have been using her in a lot of negative posts lately haven't I?) and she would constantly go on about what she hated and why. It made going out on a date to the movies really annoying because she kept saying that all of the movies were shit. The last time we went out I tried going through the list of movies and she kept saying all of them were shit. So we ended up going to see Avatar (ugh) and then one month later we break up (thank God).

Herp, derp

You're not describing elitism, you're describing hipsterism.

I think you are actually referring to "Hipster Nerds".

Elitist Nerds are Elitist BECAUSE they like things, mainstream or otherwise.

Generally, they do only like very specific things that appeal to their particular taste, but they like them nonetheless.

Elitism is something we all do. Elitism is just pride on steroids, in my opinion. Don't try to tell me you've never thought you were better than the rest of society, I mean come the fuck on, it's hard not to. Some people just express it more than others, as people have stated, its going over the line to attack someone because of an argument about Star Wars, fuck that. I more than once have been screamed at by a conservative/republican, its often conflicting opinions, I see myself as better than all those of the aforementioned political group. (if you're a republican/conservatist, don't fucking flame this, but this is the internet, so I might as well not put this here...)

 

[The Geek Lord]

Are you sure people like this exsist?

Yes. You could actually find some of these people on these forums. I'm not pointing anyone out, but it's not hard to find the people I speak of.

Or just go to Gaming discussion. *awesomeface*

Seriously, I've read topics where people are insulting each other for no god damn reason there. Remember when people knew better then to try and kill each other over petty, stupid, retarded things?

... Yeah. Me neither.

Dude, the problem with elitist nerds is that THEY'RE ELITIST NERDS.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I will be making my newest topic, "The Problem With White Supremacists".

(Yeah, I just compared nerds to racists. Shut up, I know it's a stretch.)

 

[Zakarath]

You have a problem with elitist nerds? Heh. I'd advise you to stay away from my college
Edit: well, I don't know if its the home of the elitists, but its certainly the home of the nerd elite. I suppose there's a difference.

 

[SturmDolch]

I was actually thinking of making this topic...

Elitist nerd rage always peaks in November, when a Call of Duty game is released. Then they can try to shove their opinion that the game sucks down people's throats. "OMG you like blops!?? YOU MUST BE A GIANT FAGHAT. Go pley ur mainstreem shat and listen to beeber. OMG you like lady gaga too!?!? WTFX man ur sooo stupid."

Ok, buddy. I'd reply to that but I'm too busy having fun in Blops. And, my other mainstream games like Minecraft, Mount and Blade, and Audiosurf. Oh wait...

Elitist nerds can't let people have fun if they are having fun with things the elitist nerd does not like. And the elitist nerd is very much a hipster. Having been bullied as a child for being unpopular, the elitist nerd feels the need to turn that around and try to bully people for liking things that are too popular. They'll like something at the start, then it will get popular and "mainstream", and then they will say how it used to be great before it all changed.


Strangely, one of the only notable exceptions to this rule is anything made by Valve. Elitist nerds are almost always also Valve fanboys. They will try to rip you apart for liking anything mainstream and then turn around and drop real money on party hats in Team Fortress 2. They will complain and wonder how anyone can enjoy a multiplayer game that isn't Team Fortress 2, all the while failing to realize that Valve is also a company, just like EA and Activision, and that they are Valve's little bitches.

I know a dude who is kinda like the way you explain it. But he's definitely not an elitist nerd, and I'm hard pressed to even call him a nerd even thought he fancies himself one and likes video games. The dude is a f**king idiot. People who are idiots come in all sizes and shapes, even nerd-related ones.

The words superior and inferior exist for a reason. There will always be people who are better than you at something while at the same time you excel at something else. I for example, attend a school designed specifically for intellectual students who have a complete focus on their studies. I am a better student than most however if I were to be judged on sport you would find I am far inferior. We can't all be equally good at everything so elitism will always exist.

EDIT: And did anyone else notice the irony in the OP. By saying he would rather hold a Lady Gaga purse etc. than be an elitist, he implies he is better than people who hold a Lady Gaga purse.

EDIT2: There is absolutely nothing wrong with Lady Gaga.

I hate everything and think I'm better than everyone. And do nerdy things. I just do it quietly and with groups of people as hateful/narcissistic as myself.

I think you hate people who shove their attitudes in your face, regardless of what their interests are. Because you'd never know I was what you were bitching about. I'm actually quite a nice guy in public.

 

[Kenni-chan]

I'm deeply involved with an elitist nerd....and I've come to hate him
