Nerd is a term often bearing a derogatory connotation or stereotype, that refers to a person who passionately pursues intellectual activities, esoteric knowledge, or other obscure interests that are age inappropriate rather than engaging in more social or popular activities. Therefore, a nerd is often excluded from physical activity and considered a loner by peers, or will tend to associate with like-minded people.

I don't know, are video games age-inappropriate these days? Even Keith plays them. But then again, Keith also knows exactly what obscure geek references to pepper throughout his nerd rants to make them reasonably accurate...
