Good insights, and not just software developers, really. We don’t like ads, sensationalism, or anything reeking of bullshit. If we have to talk to someone to find out the price, the product may as well not exist.

Has anyone been to any kind of convention for nerdy things. Nerds are so captured by the marketing and products being sold that they let it take over their personality and they can’t stop buying junk.

Posers. All of them.

Nerds enjoy a hobby, like tabletop games.

Posers buy Funkos and toys that they never open.

Nerds have fun. Posers try to look like they do.
