Im sorry to tell ya fellas and ladies, but we are nerds. But there is nothing wrong with being a nerd. I mean I met my wife at an anime convention dressed as her favorite character. We are what we are and as long as your comfortable with it, who cares what other people think? Honestly I know there are quite a few of us that are either still in high school or in their teens. Im 27, I play video games, I make armor, chain mail, I go to comic and anime conventions, Im a self taught martial artist, I play pen and paper games, I AM A NERD.
The earlier you accept what you are and realize that people are going to constantly hate on what they dont understand and learn to let it roll off your back, the better off youll be. Really if you think about it without us nerds where would society be? What if everyone was jocks? Wed all be speaking in monosalavick grunts and dragging unconcious wives back to caves. Preps/ trend setters? No one would work for fear ofmessing up their clothes or hair. Its because of people like us that go beyond normalcy and experiment with things people dont understand that we have electricity,the internet, the computer your on now, vaccines, automobiles, video games, movies...and the list goes on. The people that cut others down for being nerds are the ones who are a drain on society, their the ones that cant seem to grasp that to maintain the lifestyle they lead, they need people just like you and me. We dont need them, so why do we need their approval?
When their computer breaks, be d*mned if thier gonna fix it, thats why tech repair is in such high demand, its because people have sunk to a point in their existance that they'd rather pay someone else to do it than even attempt to learn something new. So what do we do? We take their money!
Now tell me who the superior biengs are? Every source of income is based on someone being overselous and passionate about something they love. So next time you get riled up or upset about something someone says about what you do, let it go. They raz you...let it go. They make fun of you...let it go. You play basketball how many days a week? How much do you get paid for it? Oh thats right, you dont. Your car/computer/network goes down, can you fix it? When the zombie outbreak takes place do you have a plan? The answer is always no.
Lifes to short to worry about these guys, they do enough hating for you and me both. I say let them hate, its when you retalliate things get worse, and if letting it roll off your back isnt enough for you, you can take solace in knowing that They are jelous of how comfortable you are with your passions, how you have the fortitude to stick with it despite what people say, that your so much better at life than them (lol) And if that doesnt work, just know that without us, society as we know it would crumble and none of these D-Bags would survive it. Sorry if this is long-winded mods, if steps are required I understand. I just needed to say it.
