Is anyone else tired of this "nerd" fad?

<p>I know this is kind of random, but it just gets on my nerves. I especially hate it when people punch the lenses out of the new 3D glasses. I see it about 20 times a day (not an exaggeration), and I’m starting to find it really annoying. To each his own, I guess.</p>

<p>This nerd fad is nonexistent where I live.</p>

3

<p>Really? It’s pretty common where I live.</p>

4

<p>Just ignore it.</p>

5

<p>This nerd fad is also nonexistent where I live. Real nerds (like me!) look the same as regular people, unless they are also geeks. And that 3D glasses thing sounds idiotic.</p>

6

<p>The “nerd fad” is mainly for dances where you dress up as a group. Some people wear them in school, but it’s just lame.</p>

7

<p>Yea, I’m talking about the fake “nerd” fad, not actually intelligent people. I would be insulting myself!</p>

<p>OP, it has hit here too! I take it as a direct insult. Girls especially think they are cool when they where the glasses from Avatar 3D, punch the holes out, and take facebook pics with a heading as “Nerdy for life <3” or something related. The worst part is that most of them are barely passing remedial classes.</p>

<p>^Thank you! I thought maybe this was some Chicago thing, and I sounded like a looney. :)</p>

10

<p>No, it’s even in Idaho. Of all the places, this farming area, the nerd phase has hit.</p>

11

<p>I haven’t heard of this nerd fad.</p>

12

<p>Don’t think the nerd fad has hit in Dallas areas besides like party stuff.</p>

<p>I hope it doesn’t come… but I bet it will.</p>

13

<p>When my cousins received those 3-D glasses from Up, they also do that to them.</p>

14

<p>I believe most “fake nerds” are “hipster”. Bleghrgh</p>

15

<p>…This may exist here, but I’m not sure it’s frequent.</p>

16

<p>Exists here in Miami -_-</p>

17

<p>The 3D glasses thing just sounds sickening.</p>

18

<p>Exists in California (at least where I live)…</p>

19

<p>We have it in Pennsylvania (1 hour outside Philly). But it’s “hipsters” that wear them, not “fake nerds.”</p>

20

<p>^We don’t have it in PA where I live (2 hours north of Philly).
Also, I don’t get how 3-D glasses are nerdy…</p>
