EPTI mean where does it stop in terms of classifying people? When I say basketball player, what do you think of? What about when I say politician? There is no adjectives that are already associated with these occupations like tall, old, skinny, suit, etc...? You are already classifying people into groups in your freaking head, why the hell does it even matter? Are all basketball players tall? No, there are exceptions (Bogues, Boykins, etc...) and the same with politicians.

If you think it doesn't have negative conotations then you're kidding yourself. Essentially, some faggot in High School (probably some football playing jock type) thought "hey.. these fags are smarter than me... there MUST be some way I can kill their self esteem while I'm in a position [popular enough] to do so". Unfortunately [or fortunately if you're a nerd] the nerds grow up, get a social life (which they had the capacity to do anyways, it's just that they were busy studying and thinking of the future so they'll have a career/money) and the stupid fuck who used to call them nerd ends up working at walmart nursing a crack habit. Nerd was made to put people down! Don't be put down. Work hard, believe and achieve. You can ALWAYS work on getting a social life. Fuck, it is so easy to meet people, become friends and go clubbing every week, i.e. "socialise". However, it's F*CKING hard to finish a good degree in a good university and get a good job. Trust me. Take it from someone who tried to shake the "nerd" tag and found that the people that call you nerd are so f*cking pathetic, insecure and feel so threatened that they'll do anything to get you off your game plan. </ rant> Hell.. I'm at work... I have a government job, I'm paid lots of money and I have very little work to do. I MUST be a nerd. Such a hard life it is sitting on my arse all day, working out at the gym and going out on the weekends while the rest of my "cool" friends are labouring at construction sites on weekends to make ends meet. I am SUCH THE NERD. And now.. maybe now you understand why I hate the word nerd. Because to me, nerd doesn't mean "social ineptitude" or "lone loser". It means "guy who is temporarily sacrificing his social status to get ahead in life". And most people don't interpret it that way and misuse the term to hurt people. </ rant within rant> This is the best post I've ever read on TL.net. | ||
