~ ~ ~ Notes from Paper Lane: a GNE weblog |
I gleaned this link off of Metafilter: an essay by Paul Graham on why nerds are unpopular. It reminded me of GNE citizens. I wonder why! ;)
Thanks for posting that Lush. I thoroughly enjoyed the read.
Thanks, Lush! My wife and I were there; that’s why we teach our kids at home.
Yeah, I think the primary skill I acquired in Jr. High and High School is to assume that any given person has no interest in being your friend, and to push them away.
It’s been a difficult skill to unlearn.
I saw that link too, the article that they have the trackback link to is pretty interesting.
As for GNE, what really makes someone “geeky?”
