you know you're a nerd when...

<p>you think of your locker combination as Calcium-Iron-Helium (don't tell anyone)</p>

<p>what have you got?</p>

<p>you get excited at the thought of a quiz on Implicit differentiation</p>

<p>You're deciding whether to go as a bismuth atom or to personify tangent for Halloween.</p>

<p>*For those who are interested, the tangent one would be to be a *gent*leman who works at a *tan*ning salon. I would wear a main sign ("Castiglioni's Tanning Salon") above a secondary sign ("open"). Therefore, I would have sign over cosign!</p>

<p>Your pick-up line is, "Can I be your derivative? I want to be tangent to your curves." :D</p>

<p>from a friend: "you know you're a nerd when you have no life and can prove it mathematically"</p>

<p>warblers that is priceless...</p>

<p>you know you're a nerd when you and your friends in calculus mathematically prove how two sophomores in your tech class are equal to 1 and -1, respectively.</p>

<p>you named your CC screenname cosine(45)</p>

<p>You show up to math club an hour early to get the good seats.</p>

<p>You daydream about math proofs in the middle of english class.</p>

<p>Your SN is mathwiz.</p>

<p>You extensively studied several books taught in the senior AP lit class... in seventh grade.</p>

<p>you decided Daft Punk was your hero.</p>

<p>Ha, that's awesome. I'm definitely going to remember those.</p>

<p>when you're a junior in ap calc ab, getting your first grade lower than a B by getting your first D in math, nervious about your rank dropping from its beutiful 5th place.... but somehow getting the jokes of knowing when you're a nerd when you know what a deriviate, implicit derivation, and tangent lines are... lol... i know i know corny... but oh well... i havent been to school since friday 'cause of Wilma... (PBCer here), im one of the lucky people with electricity... whoot whoot!!</p>

<p>Funny. Many people thing there is a parallel between being a nerd and loving math. I thought nerd meant socially inept, not extremely intelligent. Were Euler and Fermat nerds? Maybe.</p>

<p>Here's another...
When you decide on defintions for nerds, geeks, dorks, and dweebs, and you decide who everyone you know is</p>

<p>_______ is a rather/quite/somewhat (nerdy/geeky/dorky/dweeby) (nerd/geek/dork/dweeb) with a (splash/bit/dollop/sprinkle/pinch/dab) of (nerd/geek/dork/dweeb)!!!</p>

<p>Yemaya is a rather nerdy dork with a dollop of geek! :)</p>

<p>You're one hell of a geek when you crack economics jokes during a party, and you and your friends actually laugh ( lol, Ive actually done this one, and not only with economics, also with physics and math)</p>

<p>you make up a dance move based on the water molecule...</p>

<p>and actually do it at parties...</p>

<p><em>facepalms</em> i can't believe i'm actually telling people this... i feel like this has turned into some bad round of truth and dare..</p>

<ol>
<li><p>you own (and frequently wear) a shirt that says "most likely to secede" and has a yearbook-looking picture of robert e. lee on it.</p></li>
<li><p>you painted shoes with the pacman monsters on them, and frequently engage people in conversations about the relative awesomeness of blinky, inky, blinky, and (my favorite) clyde.</p></li>
<li><p>you watch the history channel to relax.</p></li>
<li><p>you make teen girl squad jokes. and have seen all the episodes at least five times. and may or may not have drawn them on your hoodie.</p></li>
<li><p>your favorite joke is about einstein and has the punch line, "it's all relative." </p></li>
<li><p>The best pick up line a boy could use on you would be, "if i could rearrange the periodic table, i'd put elements 92 and 53 together" just because of its sheer nerdosity.</p></li>
<li><p>you use words like nerdosity.</p></li>
<li><p>in serious contexts.</p></li>
<li><p>all the time.</p></li>
<li><p>you make up songs about Immanuel Kant and calculus (the refrain to that one is, "as h approaches zero, come on and be my hero")</p></li>
<li><p>when given the prompt "you know you're a nerd when" you can easily make an 11 (or 492) item list.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>When you're reading the Koran.</p>

<p>For fun.</p>

<p>God, help me. Or Allah. Whatever. I'm actually Buddhist.</p>
