Can someone with the nerd problem describe this nerd problem? As described on the show, I'm not even sure what it means. I would think I should have any nerd-problem out there, but I don't think I have this one.

It's snapping at someone because they won't explain something to you in a way that you find satisfactory, unfairly placing the onus on others to satisfy your needs. |

oh, then I don't have it
I do have poor social and communication skills though, but in the time I stay quiet I self-rationalize anything that was said that doesn't make sense. Or if there is a contradiction I'll point it out (or won't because they already moved on). |

They are in quotes because I cannot consider you a friend if you cannot communicate with me. A friend without quotes is someone who knows I am very socially awkward and bad at communicating (ex: has weird "why?" questions), but likes me anyway.

I guess this is more my problem. I have learned to tell when I am annoying someone, but sometimes push past their being annoyed because I don't care. I only really get angry when I am already overwhelmed and about to get angry. I also get called a "bitch" a lot because I am quiet and in an authority position (I am a manager).

You're getting angry and you don't care that people are annoyed because you're not invested in what they have to say. It's talking at vs talking to and you have to care what the other person has to say and be willing to take the time to digest and respond to it thoughtfully. |
