the typical nerds in moms basement types? I get the impression the place has changed from its first years, imagine being on here around 2001 and looking at know your nerds, be full of badly dressed, overweight slobs in slipknot t-shirts.....Oh wait :P

obviously internet forums are a bit weird, in ireland especially but seems a lot of ordinary people on here, the type you'd have been mates in school with.

Nope, it's just you :P

Nah, we're the type who go out at the weekend, EVERY weekend, try it on with every girl we come across EVERY weekend, get knocked back and come on AH starting threads about how we can't pull EVERY weekend.

No wait, isn't that you? :pac:

I couldn't be any different from that stereotype, I exercise, play sports and dress in skater/topman clothes.

'your moms basement' is so ****ing american. seriously, how many people have basements as part of their houses in Ireland? and I've never known anyone to call their mother 'mom'. grrrr etc.

1) Aren't Slipknot t-shirts and skater clothes pretty much the same thing?

and

2) Skater clothes and Topman clothes certainly are not the same thiing!

EdenHazard

Day to day I dress in skater clothes(DC, Young and Reckless etc.) then nights out/going cinema/dinner topman clothes.

I always find it weird when people make these "I'm cool, they're not" statements. You must need to have an incredible amount of self-worth\lack of self-awareness to think in these terms.

Is "skater" a synonym for effeminate douche in you thesaurus???

By the way, Justin Bieber? Chris Brown? One Direction?

I'm actually really surprised you don't pull more girls. You have a lot in common with most of the ones I know!

Not exactly, but "Skater by day, Topman dude by night" has this beside it:

From the boards users I can think of, very few (or certainly the minority) would fit the characterization of the stereotypical nerd the OP describes.

I do look a bit too nerdy when I wear my glasses, and I don't dress very well, and my sisters always call me a slob, so maybe I fit the OP's description to some extent. Not fat, but then I don't think that's an especially nerdy attribute anyway.

So your influences are a woman-beater, a small virgin, an overpaid underwear guy kickballer, and a bunch of small virgins?

Not surprised you're so cool.

Well if we're talking stereotypes, I'd rather be the clever nerd than the stupid jock. This is all so yankee, they don't like people to be smart. You got to be popular. That's where it's at. Apparently. So conform, people.
Yeah I'm a geek.

If you have a bet with other Boardsies that you will be the first one to get someone to post your username in After Hours, then you are a legend!

I'd guess about 15.

Any older and I'm embarrassed for him.

Jesus Christ, I'm 19 and reading that post sickens me that the youth want to dress like these >< !

I'd actually say 18-21 and that overall, the OP is a legend.

EdenHazard

What are you on about? Bieber just dresses in jeans high tops theres nothing crazy about that, the guy is sliiiiiick. One Direction/JLS are slick tho but not to everybodys taste. Im your age btw

Insect Overlord

All I know for sure is that I'm awesome.

I think it's a pretty bad sign when you only notice someone's username because you think 'what a dick' whenever you read their posts.

Yes but these people don't influence why I dress the way I dress. Even it's similarly the same. I dress the way I want when I want. Weather it's in fashion or not.

You dress like that because you think girls like it, complete difference.

I remember once before OP mentioned dancing with a "7/10".

I admire his honesty.

A 17 year old child has managed to successfully troll and outwit a bunch of supposedly educated adults yet again.
