The defining characteristic of a nerd is braininess. So, if you’re a nerd, you know you are. Now you need to rock it.
Be awesome at something. There are many different types of nerds. Determine whether you’re a math, science, literature, sci-fi, music, video game, computer, chess, or some other kind of nerd, and embrace your nerdiness. Confidence rocks anything.
Carry a book with you at all times. Nothing says “I’m a brainiac” like carrying around books that nobody else understands.
If you’re a science and technology nerd, carry an e-book reader.
Do something really cool with your intelligence. Conquer new frontiers by writing a computer program, inventing new electronics, or composing an amazing piece of music.
Get some other nerds to work with you. It’ll be a lot more fun, and who knows what results you’ll get when you pool all of that grey matter?
Create your own network of nerds — start an underground club and a newspaper.
Be proud of your pocket protector, suspenders, high-waist pants, black-framed glasses, and your mismatched accessories. The nerd look is indistinguishable from the hipster look.
Apply yourself to your studies to get high enough grades for acceptance — better yet, a scholarship — to a top school, and eventually land the perfect job. You’ll be smiling at every high school reunion.
The ultimate nerd, Anthony Edwards, who played Gilbert Lowe in Revenge of the Nerds, is an activist and chairman of the Shoe4Africa organization.
