Why is modern nerd culture so terrible?

Why is modern nerd culture so terrible?

>Why is modern culture so terrible?
FTFY

because you don't have a girlfriend.

I assume she has a big fat ass with that butterface?

it has always been terrible and infantalizing, its just that millennials are an entire generation of manchildren and womanchildren so everyone loves it now

What the fuck did you just say to me? In my OWN thread?

I wish I could pinpoint an exact cause for why "nerd culture" went from being actual nerds liking actually nerdy things to people who clearly aren't nerds/outcasts/etc. trying so fervently to be "nerdy."

I suppose one would need to start making definitions of what a nerd was 10-20-30 years ago, and what a nerd is now and compare and contrast.

>so everyone loves it now

This. Theforce.net forums used to have crazy ass discussions about minor shit that was actually interesting. Now it's just a bunch of fucking consumption and shitty jokes.

Normies ruin everything

It was always terrible, but the market realized millenials are dumb and will pay huge amounts of money to be LE QUIRKY NERD LMAO

because nerd culture is an oxymoron moron

No, he's just your stereotypical manlet numale.

It looks like it. I'd tolerate her face if she got a great ass.

G-go on.
Also, after Bazinga Theory is just culture because mancjildren bring money.
I have seen chads and staceys say how big nerds they are.

Because they took away bullying. Nerds have always been insufferable people. It is just before they were a small group that was border line ashamed of their hobbies and knew to hide them.

But I do, she thinks this shit's gay too.

Ease of entryism

The rising popularity of video games.

nerd "culture" is an idea made by disney to sell more comic book and star wars toys to manchildren.

It was around 2005-2007. I would say one of the biggest contributors was halo. It really helped to propel video games into being something not just for nerds. Once the jocks got into you had a flood of women seeking that easy attention.

they aren't adults

kids are annoying enough, it's worse when those kids are in their 30s and have money to spend

Why are there always people who latch on to creatures from new star wars trailers? Like these people have seen 2 seconds of this guy and they are OBSESSED. Why?

I don't understand the consumerism of it all. Every time I see "nerds" they have a bunch of useless shit they never touch. I started getting rid of all my useless shit about a year ago and man it feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

i didn't fully realize how culturally fucked we were until last year when i got /fit/ and a new job, attention from all these girls and my first relationship
holy shit these people are literally fucking C A T T L E
i can't blame the jews for seeing us as their niggers, whites have declined so fucking hard

Porg is mathematically designed to be the most marketable character possible and it worked.

Getting /fit/ made me hate people. Before they wouldn't would ignore me and I hated it but now that I'm getting attention I just want to be left alone.

>that dude's granny leg

every time

as much as i hate to admit it, star trek TNG is largely to blame for the popularization of "Nerd Culture".

i would "fuck" her if you know what I mean

would you porg her?

Source?

Why the fuck do women draw on their eyebrows?

that is not a woman on the right

do your research, youll see

Because nerd culture had growth via games, films, now it spans into general audience with no growth (Sci FI films). Hell I think bvs is probably the nerdist capeshit.

...

>Why are there always people who latch on to creatures from new star wars trailers?
Because these people are inherently boring individuals that feel relevant, from their proximity to something "topical".

The guy is part of the Disney Star Wars "story group". Let that sink in.

Nerd culture was always awful, always based on "nu-uh, I'm a bigger fan than you because I got the Limited Edition 1/10th scale Sio Bibble action figure of which only 20 were made!" and other garbage scenarios, but due to social media, companies really took advantage of this so it looks worse but its still the same consumerist dick measuring contest.

Also cities are seeing how much easy money nerd conventions are and women realize they just need to wear a bikini that's nerd themed and they get 1K dollars on their patreons easy.

They're not nerds.
Nerds would indicate they're smart, which they obviously aren't

Oh, see these are people actually involved with SW? I was worried that they were just fans who bought a shitton of Porg merchandise before even seeing the movie.

You can just image the feral bodyhair on that blue haired pig. She would have you strapped to the bed, her filthy bush in your face, yelling about what a diagusting cisgendered shitlord you are.

>be a cute manlet
>get a cute tall wife
>work at Lucasfilm making Star Wars

Don't lie, you wish your life was as exciting as his.

thats hot
i want her sweaty foot in my face while she calls me a misogynist

the bullying component was removed. without bullying keeping people from "acting nerdy" in public, it's just materialism now.

He's shorter than her and she has tattoos and dyed hair

No doubt she's riding that big black cock and telling him to get over it because it's the wave of the feminist future.

hijacked by women

Imagine you get divorced. What's then left of you?

Balance.

There was never any bullying. The whole jock bullies nerd thing is made up for children's shows because it is the most basic confrontation to show. People got bullied for being spergs, not because of their hobbies or interests.

Girls from highschool started hitting me up after I got /fit/ after all those years marginalizing me for being "weird" and even bullying me went they hanged out with their older fuckboys. To hell with them now, I ain't even going to fuck them out of spite.

The nerd crew. They decide what is and isn't canon.

BARINGA

Who are these semen demons?

Its inauthentic.

advertsers and marketing firms are trying to capitalize on "nerds and geeks" without understand these are just interest taken to extremes, but they they think they can appeal ti people who decide for themselves what they like rather being told what to like fanatically.

look at how much bigger she is than him. how big do you think the strap on is that she wears?

thats when you use them user

>Playing Mei
Good taste

a tom boy gf is the best kind of gf

>overwatch
>good taste

I don't play it, I just like the porn

She'd be more than happy to oblige you user. You could cure her fungal nail infection with your tongue.

She looks fine here apart from the hair color desu. Dunno why the OP image looks way worse.

fair enough, makes sense for waifu bait: the game

truth.
when you see it...

giv tall ugly gf

because old nerd culture was just smart people that liked star trek and shit

now its just fucking retards

Eight candidates for sterilization.

>smart people
>liked star trek

Top lol, it was all the minorities and fags that projected onto the cast.

So those eyebrows are acceptable to you?

looking at this makes me angry

Smartphones and Social Media

Pre-2007, normies had only email, ICQ and myspace. The entire rest of the internet belonged to people intelligent enough to use a computer.

Then the smartphone came along in 2007 and destroyed everything.

Not only did it destroy the web, but it ruined society as well.

Pancreatic cancer couldn't save the world from the smartphone.

serious answer? jew control of hollywood/our media. 1% of the population and they control 90%+ of it.

Yeah, I like THICC eyebrows, but I can't tell if she perfectly tweazes them or if some bits are drawn on because those arent natural shapes.

> What is wrong with nerd culture?

It is no longer populated by nerds. Put your head down, user. We have to just wait for the next big thing so they will go away.

The mainstream is where fandom goes to die.

It's a trendy commodity. Nerd culture is no longer about slaving over a soldering iron, probing the registers of some random chipset you just picked up, or meticulously constructing model train sets (the original reason for MIT's hacker club), it's about passively consuming media and buying shit.

that man looks so weak I want to punch him

Once in a while, I make a decision, you know something like "uninstall overwatch" or something like that.

Then every couple weeks or so, the world drops by to demonstrate why it was a great decision and promises to give me more reasons again in the future.

oh shit, is that a gundark on the shelf?

>buys all the figures and merchandise ironically to make fun of fanboys

Whose the real autist though?

maybe they guy it, maybe people send them that crap

I think they've been sent a million bits of star wars tat over the years

He’d probably kick your ass.

I think they're red and I only know this because one of my friends had that huge Star Wars beast encycolpedia with that faux-scales cover that released between TPM and AOTC. Wonder if Disney will ever show what they look like in the movies.

I doubt it

itkfb

most people are just drones, cattle is probably a good metaphor, although it offends me as a goyim and i cant allow someone to denigrate me like that

These YouTube channels are able to write these purchases off of taxes

Nah, he could definitely take you. So could his girlfriend. They’d both take turns beating your ass.

Because you touched yourself instead of making your six movies super epic space opera.

Not unless they’re incorporated or associated with a legally recognized business in some way. Otherwise the government just sees YouTube as a hobby and not a business

someone post the npc theory from /x/

, if you're using an item as part of your business you can write it off on your taxes.
All the channels that display that shot for their videos learned you basically can get it for free. Adam savage said he would browse eBay for memorabilia and it all fell under "working."

Are people doing shit like this on purpose? To bring attention to this next star wars? I want to think it's some ad campaign but it's so terrible that it will bring nobody there. This is not a good idea.

I mean I know I don't care but I'm just some shmuck on Sup Forums. This is pathetic though.

What's being packaged as "nerd culture" has nothing to do with actual "nerds." It's nothing more than a consumer market that people with no identity to call their own latch on to so that they can feel relevant. Of course, to be a part of this "culture," you have to buy consumer goods that are marketed towards this demographic. These people are not "nerds"; they're manchildren who are easy to manipulate into buying worthless garbage. There is a difference.

Damn what the fuck, youtube sonds cushy as hell.

This is the kind of dude that's easily impressed upon, if he had a good bunch of lads to hang out with they would have peer pressured him into kicking his into gear a bit more, making himself a bit more assertive and the like. The woman got to him first though, you can see her influence play out on his weak will and determination.

I feel sorry for men like this, we all know them, kind and sweet guys that would do anything for you, but they're such fucking pushovers.

Well the guy is a confirmed Disney employee, and someone is cross posting this same image on several different boards every single day. This could be viral advertising or it could just be the work of a desperately lonely and bitter Sup Forums using virgin. I still suspect the latter

thats not really nerd culture though, there is this great divide between nerds who are actually passionate about their hobbies and hipsters who embrace pop-culture as a fashion-accessory so they have something to post on instagram.

And getting him into what? Sports? Getting drunk? Exactly what would be a better choice for this guy?

And there’s nothing more fucking pathetic than someone who lets a bunch of “lads” dictate his tastes. Fucking nitwit sheep.

Looks like it's time for the daily "i am autistic man who doesn't contribute to anything in any way but everyonebelse is the problem" thread.

Giving him a sense of independence, for fucks sake! Look at OPs pic, I wouldn't wish that fate on any man
