Is it normal that i find geek culture somewhat annoying?

On topic: It's called Geek chic, and yes, it's retarded.

Off topic: Being asian is overrated too.

Read something the other day "hipster, a geek who stumbled across good music and finally got laid"

It's funny I was talking to a girl at a bar the other day with big black rimmed glasses. Then I realized there was no lenses in them, upon closer inspection I noticed the "3D" logo on the side. She had taken them from the cinema. That was kind of sad.

All fads are annoying why are there so many labels why do i have to be labelled why cant i just be me.

Fuck all ya.

What you are talking about is hipsters. People who are actually that blind would prefer not to need glasses. The big bang is actually really funny. One of the shows I will watch.

I like a lot of stuff considered "nerdy" and would be labelled a nerd by someone viewing my DVD and games collection but I don't know why people can't just like stuff and move on. It's fine if you go to conventions, cosplay, etc. but the people that shove what they like down people's throats and constantly talk about how much they hate everyone else's opinions annoy me.

Geek chic is just one of the worst things to happen to mankind. Wearing thick-rimmed glasses and a t-shirt with the word "GEEK" written on it doesn't make you a "Geek". I hate when anyone thinks they are part of a culture that they aren't. For example, I knew someone a few years ago who listened to the likes of Paramore, Kids in Glass Houses (what ever happened to them?), Fall Out Boy and all that stuff but was adamant that he was a metalhead. You aren't something just because you label yourself as it. If I say I'm black, it doesn't mean I am.

And now people keep asking me if I wear these large glasses because I like this geek chick stuff(I don't)... And I was a nerdy kid before I started wearing them...

I agree entirely, I literally got disgusted looks from my friends when I had to 'confess' that I take no joy in obsessing over comics or video games! It's the girls with the enormous glasses which annoy me the most though, I actually need them to see yet I can't wear them without being labeled a 'wannabe nerd'.

Fuck geek culture.

Over-exposed, yes. Over-rated, not sure about that.

I cannot stand people who call themselves nerds. It's just another arrogant term for oneself.

Maddox has a VERY relevant blog post on this, swing by the best page in the universe with a cup of tea for a good laugh.

In all seriousness, yes, it annoying the living crap out of me as well. The whole fad with nerds currently hurts actual nerds, not help. It's like a patronizing punch to the gut.
