Nerds were invented by Charles Nerd, when in 1948, separated from the Poindexters and the eggheads after disagreement.
You can only call then Nerds if they're from the Nerdeaux region of France. Otherwise they're just sparkling smartasses
umm ackshually this is false, the concept of nerd originates from a viking ship that docked at Lübeck in 873, whereupon the crew got into an extended argument about the precise value of their cargo, leading to the Lübeck merchants exclaiming "Fücking Nörds!" and that quickly caught on and eventually the term started generally referring to anyone that was annoyingly pedantic but technically correct.
Can I cite this on Wikipedia?
absolutely. I am a tyrant that you should trust, and you should let me run your life. I know what is best for you.
