Nerds by ~Exploding-Zombies on deviantART

Actually, nowadays nerds are either neckbeards or straight-A students. You never see people running around with pocket protectors any more.

Edit: Lots of people seem to have misunderstood what I'm trying to say with this comic. I'm not saying nerds can't be attractive. There are plenty of attractive nerds out there, however the people in the bottom picture are just regular scene/hipster/whateveristrendyrightnow kids who aren't nerds at all. They just like wearing thick rimmed classes because they want to be unique snowflakes.

I was a nerd before it was all cool. Still am, to a certain extent.

And I wear my now-battered black glasses because a)they go with everything, and b)I think I look good in them.

I do find it ironic that people accusing others of doing X just to be hipsters has itself become a meme. I mean in the same sense language is a meme, not the way lolcats are a meme. I appreciate X properly, thinks the threatened nerd, not ironically like they're doing.
