From Wikipedia,

Nerd is a term often bearing a derogatory connotation or stereotype, that refers to 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. Therefore, a nerd is often excluded from physical activity and considered a loner by peers, or will tend to associate with like-minded people.


Okay, about the only thing I passionately pursue anymore are Uncle Dukes donuts, Amazon GC's, my granddaughter, and mobileread. Not necessarily in that order.

I am actually a 'loner'. Not a party person. (except here).

My family and MobileRead are all the social activity I need. So I picked "yes I am a nerd".
I like to color in coloring books.
I only move in order to locate food.
I spend most of my time lurking or posting in forums
or reading a book.

I guess I do fit the definition of nerd! lol

mmm... donuts...
