Aww, you don't have to be unstylish, unattractive, or socially inept to be a nerd. I've known plenty of nerds that aren't any of those. As far as nouveau goes, I am certainly not a nouvelle-nerd, I've been a nerd as long as I can remember. Back in the day (in elementary school) I used to only read science books. Since then I've branched out a bit, but I'm still hard core science all the way. Yeah...
