[quote=Magic Magnum] Because normally those who are not into anything like geek/nerd culture will see it as something to attack and mock people for liking.Those who are open minded enough to simply accept a difference of preference have already shown themselves to be not normal simply by being open minded.In other words to clarify, when I say "Normal" I don't just mean '"You're not a geek/nerd" but "You're not a geek/nerd and will attack and criticize others for it. Therefore not worth my time". [/quote] In acknowledging what others may or may not think you pay them homage in the form of time, which could be used on being productive. Love yourself and be happy with that. Judge not, for in doing so you are creating an issue where you may not otherwise find one.
