What would you say if someone calls you a nerd because you play video games?

[Sexy Street]

I have to sit down, you just BLEW MY MIND

 

[primitivescrewhead]

As Bill Gates said "If you're not a nerd, chances are you will be employed by one"

Yes I am a 'nerd' in the sense I find movie trivia fascinating, and play computer games and read stephen king, but who cares? Isn't knowing everything about an apparent less nerdy topic such as your favourite football team just as 'nerdy'?

 

[DemonicVixen]

"Me a nerd because i play video games? Well if thats the case...IM PROUD TO SAY IM A NERD!"

 

[falcon1985]

"HOLY SHIT! Really? Fuck. Well, that changes my whole life!"

*goes back to playing*

works for me

 

[Raven's Nest]

I'm no nerd... I'm a space station...

 

[saphirekosmos]

Thank you. Mainly because I know we nerds control the world. >

 

[JoshGod]

you know people pick on others because either
a)they are insecure about something they do, are or have done
or b)they just have no willpower/morality and so resort to trying to pass on the pain from being bullied themselves.

so which is it?
you look confused, thats alright i didn't expect that brain to cling on to anything. have a nice day now.

I'd reply to them: "Sir, in a community that we presently live in, the higher percentage of people our age play video games. So I have to ask you what gives you the right to demean the masses choice to enjoy video games. In fact you are a black sheep. You do not belong. So please, do think your words through a bit more before you utter them. Have a nice day. Now begone before I bash your teeth in.

 

[NIHILHATE]

"Enjoy your virginity, you sad little boy". (About 90% of these anti nerd types never get laid until they're, like, 20)

 

[Ocelot GT]

I'd look at them like they were an idiot...

And if I played tennis in school once, does that make me a sports jock too?

I was just wondering what you guys would say if you were called a nerd by someone purely because you play video games.

"You say it like it's a bad thing" (look em in the eye like you pity them in the way you pity a kitten with a hurt paw and smile honestly). Don't give the slightest hint of shame (why would you be ashamed?)...that's exactly where they want you.

 

[seious]

oh hey have you met my freinds go fu*k yourself

 

[Monkeytacoz]

i would say "great, have fun working for me one day"

 

[Epictank of Wintown]

"...your point is?"

 

[Lemon Of Life]

Well...everyone plays videogames at my school. So...yeah I'd just roundhouse kick him for how dumb his observation was.

 

[AwesomeNinjaPowers]

'What's your point?' and then ignore the ignorant *%$&

 

[Bilbo536]

"Damn straight"

 

[Dorian]

I would say nothing and ignore it.

If everyone's opinion of me was automatically a valid concern, then I'd have offed myself a loooooong time ago.

I was just wondering what you guys would say if you were called a nerd by someone purely because you play video games.

"Yeah, and...? What's your point?"

This never happens though.
