Be nice to nerds. You may end up working for them. We all could.
I think, that if the world were a bit more like ComicCon, it would be a better place.
It's a lazy Saturday afternoon, there's a couple lying naked in bed reading Encyclopediea Brittannica to each other, and arguing about whether the Andromeda Galaxy is more 'numinous' than the Ressurection. Do they know how to have a good time, or don't they?
No one messes around with a nerdβs computer and escapes unscathed.
If you want to annoy a poet, explain his poetry.
Wit seduces by signaling intelligence without nerdiness.
I love staring at my books for hours just trying to decide which book to read next. Doing that is almost as fun as actually reading them.
Turner had never met a kid like Elwood before. Sturdy was the word he returned to, even though the Tallahassee boy looked soft, conducted himself like a goody-goody, and had an irritating tendency to preach. Wore eyeglasses you wanted to grind underfoot like a butterfly. He talked like a white college boy, read books when he didn't have to, and mined them for uranium to power his own personal A-bomb. Still--sturdy.
Books should never be disrespected.
