The Suburban Nerd (This week on the Discovering Channel)

You see them out occassionally. They don't stand out in a crowd when alone. They are often found in computer stores from 9am to 5pm and science fiction conventions. They often in speak in techno-gibberish. It IS english, but you won't understand what they are saying.

... they are... {dunt dunt duuuuuuuu} The Suburban Nerd (surb-nerds).

These interesting creatures travel in packs. They are harmless. They won't attack. As a matter of fact, their skiddishness increases at the site of a fleshy female beauty. Suburban Nerds will escape the warm glow of their 21" monitors and venture into the daylight. You will find them huddled up around the latest network card or newest star wars book. They can be spotted when not travelling in their herd. They are usually in their 40's, but holding on to that 80's style rattail hairdo. Their fashion sense lacks anything within the last 2 years style. On occasion their clothing will match when they are wearing black jeans with a black star trek t-shirt.

Lucky for most of us, they do not mate. They seldom are found sniffing the proverbial butt of the opposite sex. If Surb-nerds did mate, could you imagine the untapped resource by which NASA could exploit and further our our technological advances? Our math programs would be closer to that of Asian countries. Just imagine...
