<p>When you notice that your physics teacher's periodic table is outdated because it's missing a few of the later elements.
When you analyze the diction and thematic meanings of the songs you listen to.</p>
<p>Both true for me.</p>
<p>"When you're at the mall and you continuously ask your friends if they're done shopping at American Eagle because you want to go to Barnes and Noble."</p>
<p>~Second that!</p>
<p>Others:</p>
<p>~When you memorize three different modes of Tengwar.
~When you decide to write a program for your family's Christmas grab-bag instead of actually picking names out of a hat.
~When you have a shirt picked out for Pi Day a month before it occurs.</p>
<p>Hahahahaha luthien! I was just going to third it!</p>
<p>Hmm, acording to weird Al:</p>
<ul>
<li>Steve Hawkings is in your library.</li>
<li>You do vector calculus just for fun.</li>
<li>You edit wikipedia
*You're fluent in java script as well as Klingon...</li>
</ul>
<p>Oh! I'm planning on making a shirt for pi day any suggestions? ;)</p>
<p>When /b/ does not melt your brain.</p>
<p>when you answer every single question in one class that the teacher and other kids eventually get bored and ignore you.</p>
<p>when you like to analyze books in your spare time, and write papers for fun.</p>
<p>when you dream that you're in class taking notes.</p>
<p>:D</p>
<p>Wait, what day is Pi Day? I can never remember!</p>
<p>I can hardly ever remember my own birthday.</p>
<p>Well pi is ~3.14 so it shouldn't be hard to figure out from that...</p>
<p>Oh gosh. Now I feel stupid. I should have realized that... </p>
<p>You know you're a nerd when you're emailing your Latin teacher (well, I guess that's a sign you're a nerd) and you methodically work in Latin vocabulary. Like instead of saying constant you put perpetuus.</p>
<p>lol good posts everyone. These are just a few of mine.</p>
<p>1) When people on CC complain that they got a 2290 on the SAT instead of a 2300
2) Same thing goes with SAT II and ACT, when they get a 32 or 780 and complain.
3) When you complain when you didn't get the extra credit on a test.
4) Complain, "OMG, I failed that test".....The next day, you find out that you got a 98%
5) Start using SAT vocab words in your daily conversation.</p>
<p>I am not actually a nerd. Just an average asian. At least I don't leave nasty content on CC.</p>
<p>You're a nerd if you have AMC/AIME certificates taped to your bedroom wall.</p>
<p>You know you are a nerd when your vocabulary is more advanced then your advanced placement teacher's vocabularies.</p>
<p>You know you're a nerd when instead of having teachers tell you what to change on your essays they ask you if what you did was grammatically correct, because they're not sure if it's just your style or a real mistake.</p>
<p>lol..^^^^thats a good one.</p>
<p>hehe these aren't actually [all] true for me but I thought I'd edit for some nerdier alternatives..</p>

When you wonder why they'd be complaining about that b/c a 2300 isn't really a good score either. It's not good til you're at least mid-2300s.

You mean 98% is NOT failing?!</p>
<p>lol...ok now onto the real stuff: when you haven't been able to talk to the opposite gender since elementary school when you guys were all giving each other cooties.</p>
<p>Band related one:</p>
<p>You have the songs your band has played on your iPod/MP3 player and listen to them every once in awhile even though you haven't played them in over a year.</p>
<p>You are a nerd when:
-You would rather spend a Saturday fixing more SDRAM and DDRAM (stuff that nonnerds don't know) into you're custom built pc rather than going with girls to the waterpark.
-When you would rather hit level 80 and get into full tier 8 armor on WoW (it's some pc game that a bunch of people are addicted to, I don't play it but I used to) than have sex with Jessica Alba
-When you get 800s on the SAT but can't do any of that !@#$ in front of girls
-When you have both the iPod touch and iPod classic...
-When the last thing you think of before you sleep are derivates and other calculus things
-You complain to your friends because you have a study hall tomorrow</p>
<p>Oh and when you were like me and you went and took the SAT and purposely answered everything wrong. I GOT A 600, total...</p>
<p>Here are some debate ones:
You get nervous debating in class, but it's like walking a dog when you are at a tournament.
You stay up until 2 working on your cases
You call your friend (really excitingly) telling them what a cool article or statistic you found
run up to a teammate, compare evidence, and then fight over who's is better.
your only independent reading consists of publishing that have to do with this months topic.</p>
<p>you have 3 expando folders and 25 G2 pens. and a briefcase</p>
