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.

Yeah, this is self-aggrandizement from a group of people who consistently believe they’re smarter and more self-aware than everybody else, when in reality they just lack self-awareness. Nerds will smugly post in this thread as a wall of funk pops and Star Wars slop looms behind them.

Then they ain’t nerds, sorry.

Yeah, I think scottsman are the ones that are actually immune to marketing.

What say you to this example of a Scotsman that is infected with marketing?
