Most of us on Lemmy are nerds in many ways, it’s part of why we’re on something like Lemmy as opposed to the more narcissistic social media platforms.
However many of us are cool sociable people, or extremely capable in something that others look up to us for, we just have nerdy hobbies or careers or tendencies, what are those traits or abilities that make others enjoy being around us or look up to us or would otherwise be described as “cool”?
What made me cool in high school, according to those who called me cool, was because I don’t give a fuck what other people think and just do what I like to do, dress how I like to dress, etc.
Though it was probably also that time a bully wanted to fight me and got practically the whole school to watch as he wailed on me and I just laughed because he had absolutely no power and felt like I was being assaulted by pillows.
Damn dude. He might have tried to conflict physical damage to you, but you certainly conflicted psychological damage on him with your response during the fight. Seems like something The Dark Knight Joker would do.
