The only acceptable nasally singing is done with a banjo and a southern accent

It is fashionable now to proclaim one's self a nerd now as it was formerly to proclaim one's self the unconventional outsider back in high school. Either way it's extremely annoying to suppose that no one can fathom the depth of your soul when you sport a look manufactured by a shopping mall clothing chain and honed by MTV Top 20 bands.

I hear ya, sistah

You can tell what an individual I am because I look just like the jack-hole sitting next to me, you sheep!

I think this is kind of going along with how now at the eye doctor you can only buy the giant plastic glasses of old ladies or the rectangular ones of 80's nerds.

I think this all comes from the crap we tell kids about them being unique, and yes they are technically, but just becuase you are unique doesn't mean you get to be tiringly prideful.

Sorry, Walt Whitman, I know we should "celebrate" ourselves and "sing" about it, but not when you're an uninspired ass.

yeah, i saw an article in the western herald a few weeks ago about the "ascencion of 'nerd rap'."

basically a bunch of skinny white kids with thick plastic glasses and tattoos of leetspeek and binary numbers.

Oh god, no. I know rap is great, but it's not a free agent medium. Stop, silly white people, stop trying to claim rap.
