Nerdy Star Wars discussion

I love nerds, I love nerdy discussions. I am a pretty big nerd lover eventhough I am not a nerd. The definition of a nerd is: "a person who passionately pursues intellectual activities, esoteric knowledge or other obscure interests that are age inappropriate rather than engaging in more social or popular activities".

I know many people call themselves "a nerd". The slang "nerd" is even cool, so it is cool to call yourself a nerd. The thing with the nerd is not participating in social activities cause it simply isn't your thing, you are alone in your love for... whatever. So some dude reading manga all day in his attic room who have no friends and no social life is a nerd.

Anyway, there is a lot of cool stuff to be found online about nerds, one of my favorites is the conversation in Clerks 2, Star Wars vs LOTR!

lol...oh gosh my ex guy is a like supreme nerd! you would have great discussions with him because he is so passionate about everything that interests him from anime, to comic books, indie films to karate. He's the type of person that have all of these facts and info in his brain that no one really uses in real life lol

this is amusing! especially the part where he shows what is part 1, 2 and 3 all about (1.33) and well, i admit... even i do not know the details (i love moving images) i am more a starwars guy. Starwars does move a lot more. And LOTR is all about the winter.
