"There's no place like home." Nerds are considered a large group of friends and associates, like any gang, who are technical wizards, math magicians, engineering experts, math-ter magicians, science masterminds, and/or computer geniuses, all with particularly high intellects, and usually absorbed by a singular passion or academic pursuit. They are on an insatiable quest for knowledge, and will constantly question the quality, source, and utility of the information they receive. Although they are not likely to take you in a fight or beat you on the playing field, they are a brainy bunch who will overpower you with their knowledge of subjects like computer systems, sci-fi, robotics, quantum mechanics, physics, and the like. *** This journal alternates between 8 LINED pages for writing and 2 BLANK pages for sketching/diagrams throughout - Size 5.2" x 0.2" x 8" with 110 pages total. *** It can be used as a record of stats and schedules, a place for notes on fantasy sports, a diary of thoughts and goals, a journal of ideas, a sketchbook, a record of special memories, or all of the above.

The BEST things about being a NERD: -You are a human encyclopedia who knows a ton of random things. -You pay attention when someone is teaching something interesting. -Your thirst for proper entertainment, and quest for knowledge and intellectual stimulation is insatiable. -You constantly question the quality, source, and utility of information. -Everyone looks to you for smart answers because you actually know of what you speak. -The drama going on around you just doesn't interest you and never has anything to do with you. -You level off somewhere between cool and not cool. -You don't always fit in, but you're perfectly fine with who you are. -You consider yourself to have a bit of an alter ego, to which others might not relate. -You have an appreciation of all types of music. -You hesitate to correct obvious errors, so as not to insult the intelligence of others. -You tend to miss social cues that others recognize right away. ----- Also available from Amazon.com ----- ----- "There's no place like 127.0.0.1" ISBN-13: 978-1723557170 ----- "Spectaphile" ISBN-13: 978-1723556777 ----- "Keep it HTTPS" ISBN-13: 978-1723556449 ----- "Geekachu" ISBN-13: 978-1723549779 ----- "NERD" ISBN-13: 978-1723549465 ----- "Proud to be a NERD in the HERD" ISBN-13: 978-1974098071 ----- "Proud to be a NERD in the HERD" ISBN-13: 978-1974122677
