I just witnessed a prime example of how socially-awkward/inept the two nerds (Guy and Nate) are together. This is my first ever documentation of "nerdtalk," so bear with me if I don't convey the true awkwardness of the situation.
So, I'm walking back from the bathroom after brushing my teeth, and I hear this nasally-whining from the kitchen/main room area. Guy, who rarely leaves his room due to his extreme inability to interact with anyone without pissing them off, happened to be in the kitchen and had the misfortune of running into Nate, who talks to anything that moves (and even some things that don't). Here's a run-down of what happened:
Guy: *Mumbles something indistinct*
Nate: "What?"
Guy: "I said 'sup?' to you."
Nate: "I said 'Hi.'"
Guy: "And I said 'sup?'"
*Both of them fall into bizarre silence and go about their business*
Amazing, yet annoying. Apparently, they're just as unable to properly communicate with each other as they are with non-nerds. Perhaps there are different "nerdtalk" dialects I'm not taking into account.
I'll continue to document this incredible example of "nerds in the wild" as the semester progresses. For now, I must attend to other business. Enjoy.
