Yesterday as I was walking out of my building, a car drove by with some students in it. They rolled down the passenger side window and yelled "nerd!" They drove off before I could say "Why yes -- I'm a professor. It's my job to be a nerd. How many thousand dollars a year are they paying you to be cool?"

A witty reposte!

If only you could have slowed them down with something suitably nerdy, like a trebuchet or a portable wormhole generator, to deliver your line properly.

(My icon is for them, not you.)

Fine quality students at your institution, I see!

Assholes!

'Nerd!' is slightly more intelligent than the wordless bellows I receive from brain-dead hoodlums in cars! :-9
