Nerds
like us are allowed to be unironically enthusiastic about
stuff… Nerds are allowed to love stuff, like
jump-up-and-down-in-the-chair-can’t-control-yourself love
it. When people call people nerds, mostly what they’re
saying is ‘you like stuff.’ Which is just not a good
insult at all. Like, ‘you are too enthusiastic about the
miracle of human consciousness’.”
-John Green
