After we launched this blog, I had to call my father and invite him to be a member of our society. I even asked for the customary $ 5.00 donation and offered to send him a laminate card. What was his reaction? "I am not in denial, " he said. " I am a nerd and proud of it!". He gave the phone back to my mother. She laughed hysterically.
We know you are out there. I know a few at work that are N.I.Ds. (I just won't call them a NID to their face, some people are sensitive you know.) You hear us in the movie theatre making commentary about the inaccuracies of the film under our breathes. You see us in the grocery story persuading whomever would listen about the nutritional value of the product or the enviornmental impact of the packaging. We correct your grammar. We take delight in fantasy. We LOVE our SUPER HEROS. (i for one, have a proud collection of Super Hero tee-shirts!). So if you are out there, don't be shy. Post. We want to hear from you. We want you to know we are here to support you too. You are not a freak. You are just a Nerd that is in Denial.
