Nerds for Life

We should be celebrating, not denigrating, the unironically enthusiastic.*

Tell me that your goal in life is to design the typography for an airline.
Tell me that you spend your summers selling pickles at a Renaissance Faire, making bawdy jokes to pull in customers.
Tell me that you grin at the thought of self-detonating ants.
Tell me that your favorite episode of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" is the one where Q transforms the crew into Robin Hood and his band of merry men.
Tell me that the possibilities of Wikipedia excite you more than side-boobs do.
I will love you all the more for it.

(Just don't tell me you like Twilight.)
