[OOC] Teen Titans: Divided We Fall

[FacePunch]

I'm confused.

[Lord Wraith]

I think you all are confused on the term nerd. Hillan especially is using it in place of fan or fanatic.

[SugarRush]

Yes, Hillan plagued my mind.

[Hillan]

Said like a bunch of true nerds.

[An Outsider]

Would you all shut up about who is and isn't nerds!?

As the cool kid of the group I feel it's my solemn duty to settle the matter, in as solid and final a fashion as possible, so no one is left with any doubt as to who the nerd is. So listen close, cause I ain't repeating myself.

You're all on an online roleplaying play-by-post guild

You're all nerds!

p.s Cept Hillan. He lacks the pre-requisite intelligence. He's really more of a geek.

p.p.s And before anyone gets smart, I ain't a nerd either. I'm only here ironically, so it doesn't count.

[Weird Tales]

So if Sentinel is dead then what character will FacePunch be using?

[FacePunch]

He's not dead. I just wanted somebody besides Sentinel to save the day, so he's taking a break.

[Hillan]

Him laying there on the floor half dead is him 'tapping out' and taking five, yeah?

[Enarr]

I'm a nerd
She's a nerd
Wouldn't you like to be a ner-erd too!

But yep, Sammy put it right. Cept he's a nerd too, I mean look at the avatar. No child of the current generation would know what show its from. Thats worse than nerdiness. Thats OLDNESS.

Sam's a nerd for being old

NERD:

• A foolish or contemptible person who lacks social skills or is boringly studious.
• A single-minded expert in a particular technical field.

GEEK:

• An unfashionable or socially inept person.
• A carnival performer who performs wild or disgusting acts.

FANATIC:

• A person filled with excessive and single-minded zeal, especially for an extreme religious or political cause.

FAN:

• Sometimes also called aficionado or supporter, is a person who is enthusiastically devoted to something or somebody, such as a band, a sports team, a book or entertainer. Collectively, the fans of a particular object or person constitute its fanbase or fandom. They may show their enthusiasm in a variety of ways, such as by promoting the object of their interest, being members of a fan club, holding or participating in fan conventions, or writing fan mail. They may also engage in creative activities ("fan labor") such as creating fanzines, writing fan fiction or drawing fan art.

Therefore you should all be calling each other fans, not nerds!

@Lord Wraith

Where on earth are you getting those descriptions from, because they sound like they were written by an eighty year old Oxford English literary professor, musing on the popular culture of today's youth.

Also, you presented that as fact, as if you're a '•A single-minded expert in a particular technical field.'. . . Ya nerd!

[Lord Wraith]

Funny enough Google.

@Lord Wraith

You're a nerd for words, Wraith.

[Lord Wraith]

Word.

And now a message from our President:

My fellow Americans, I address you tonight with a heavy heart. A great tragedy has befallen our nation today. San Francisco, once a shining city of nearly five million is now a deserted wasteland...

It is due to the actions of these young people, that General Wilson and I have put forth the Vigilante Registration Act forcing all masked heroes to submit their personal identities to the government and work under our trained officers. No longer will these 'capes' run freely in our streets enforcing their own brand of justice but rather they shall become the hand of those who actually have the best interests of the public at heart.

[SugarRush]

... Thanks, Obama.

[Lord Wraith]

... Thanks, Obama.

@Lord Wraith

Luthor stole the "My fellow Americans" thing! Or maybe every president does that and Obama is just the only one of recent memory.
