nerds

Nerds have been longstanding members of the social hierarchy. Although they are some of the most valuable citizens, they are usually regarded as weak and feeble. It may seem like the bold and the beautiful are the ones who are running the show, but the nerds are the ones who are behind the scenes, making sure everything is running smoothly and trading test answers for a chance to get laid. When you’re a nerdy girl, you’re not one of those girls who say they are a nerd because they watched Star Wars once. You are nerdy from the textbooks you buy to the flats that you wear to bars, and you wouldn’t want it any other way.
