Under The Sky So Blue
If anything am kinda happy the term "nerd" is no longer a bad thing. But I think like all labels you gotta prove it. For me being a nerd is just another way of saying "I REALLY REALLY LIKE THIS GAME AND THUS I KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT IT" But I also feel you with the whole "nerd" thing, because I got labelled for that negatively a lot, and I felt pretty lame. T__T

I guess by the next generation my feelings will have no meaning since kids are going to actually embrace being a “nerd” but I personally can’t bring myself to call myself something that was used to make fun of me for the longest. I prefer “gamer” (even though I also hate the whole “real gamer” vs “fake gamer” bullshit) but I guess that’s just me
