"Weird Al" Yankovic - White & Nerdy (Official 4K Video)

This makes me think of Weird Al's "White and Nerdy" [VIDEO] I attended a military academy, which mildly resembled prison in a few respects. We weren't allowed out of the dorms after 7pm, and an instructor would make sure we were all in bed (checking off our names on a checklist) and turn the light out in our rooms for us. Then he'd stay there and make sure we didn't leave our rooms until just before Reveille. The jocks and bad atitude cases would sometimes dress up as commandos in all-black outfits and go on "missions" to sneak off have trysts with girlfriends or pull pranks (like shining the breasts of one female statue on campus.) They'd often get caught, which was bad because it was technically a dismissal offense. Me, I was part of a group that snuck around after lights out to gather and play D&D. Actually, we didn't sneak. We just put on dress uniform, and the security guards assumed we were Officer of the Day. No, I did not have a girlfriend in High School.

You forgot the fact that riding one makes you look like a total geek, and not in a good way. Al Yankovic's song "White and Nerdy" captures the image perfectly: [VIDEO]

I think that the title should be more, what the fuck happened to tech executives as compared to nerds. because previously it was mostly the nerds who were at the forefront of the innovation (they still are), but they now have a playbook where they see all the other people (grifters) who are entering tech for money and the playbook of the attention economy and doing that because its a profitable strategy. It's basically the fact that there are multiple companies where a grift culture is promoted within tech (ironically I am on YC website and YC had a company which you might've heard called delve :D) As people realized that the technology has value and finance people realizing it to pour head over fist money into it. With such eggregious trillions of dollars worth of money (basically the whole economy getting floated by tech), you are bound to see people within this do the grift playbook and talk about themselves and succeed and that has become the playbook. So I think this is what has happened to nerd culture. It simply became profitable and then commoditized and used by people who could then grift. BUT people are respecting the nerd culture (well the non grift version of it) a lot more For some reason, I wish to recommend Weird Al video song about White & Nerdy[0] and how people within the comments are saying that Nerd culture has its own unique identity and many if not all appreciating the nerd culture [0] [VIDEO] So TLDR: people like the previous nerd culture and it still e
