I am a Nerd

I ran across a very funny web comic strip. It is probably the funniest comic I've ever read.

It's also so nerdy that even my friends and family (except my brother Craig) probably won't get many of the strips.

The comic is xkcd.

Here are a few samples I found hilarious.











Yes, I'm weird.

Okay...I get the last one. Since I NEVER studied a periodic table I'll simply let the first one go by default.

Alright, just kidding. I got ALL of them...except the first one.


...I think.

"Sn" is the periodic symbol for tin. I laughed before I got to the last panel. Then I laughed again. I'm hopeless.

...Okayyyyyy. For us non-geeks "SNapple" might have been a clue.

But it's "Sn", not "SN". I would not have recognized "SN" and I doubt many others would have either. Sorry. It's pure geek.

Ok. I got all of them. I had to get out a periodic table, but I got it. SN would've been more obvious. I had to look up Tin.

I liked them all. But my two favorite ones are the Debian one, and the Windows ME one.

Sarah and I are the "Good" Shopping Team, but sometimes we're the "Very Bad Team"...It depends....

The funny thing is I know guys that think that Constructive Criticism impresses girls. I know because I used to one of them.

I got all of them and thought they were all funny. Does that make me a Nerd?
