OLLIE 4 DUMMIES! (Which Toxic Nerd are you?)

-



Professor Ollie here, and class is in session! To piggyback on Stalks' damned conviction opinion piece on Toxic Nerdom, I decided to double down by describing character traits as in flaws, that define certain nerds.Why, some of you readers out there may or may not share some of these traits from my hit list!And that's all good, after all, you're only "human!" Hissss!


And now without further adieu allow me to do some "Nerdsplainin!"

Alpha-Beta Nerd: Whiny lil bitch who dismissive of films that celebrate diversity especially when it comes to African-Americans having prominent roles. Quick to harass someone who's opinions that align with their own just as long as its from a distance. Against females having lead roles. Misogynist,  Racist and Xenophobic. More than likely a goddamned Trump supporter who thinks Covid 19 is a hoax and BLM is a terrorist group, when in fact White Supremacists are more likely to commit terrorist attacks. The Snowflake of all Snowflakes!

Beta Nerd: Holier-than-thou Passive-aggressive geek.
Embraces diversity  in pop culture.(At least on the outside.) Known to belittle individuals who they deem sexist or racist, for expressing an sincere opinion.  Defends noble causes just to score brownie points with Women and minorities.
More than likely to be a Social Justice Warrior i.e. "Pseudo Justice Warrior."

Gamma Nerd: A Gamma Nerd is equally abrasive to the Alpha Nerd in regard to political debates or racial diatribes. However, this particular class of nerd will berate you on less serious issues like, critiquing a movie, game or TV series he or she cherishes as if they were responsible for the creation of said entertainment mediums.  Can easily be mistaken as a Studio shill, plant or even a sock puppet. The Village idiot.

Theta Nerd: A Neo Feminist nerd who values female representation in pop culture even if  it comes off as pandering. She can be very dismissive of others and at times high maintenance if not misandrist.

Delta Nerd: These are among the most annoying nerds. Delta Nerds are caustic in nature who align themselves with cliques who abuse other geeks outside of their social circles.Esoecially when their targets aren't aware of them being talked about! Very duplicitous as in being a friend on the surface, but underneath the layers is a backstabbing opportunist and social climber. Quick to "correct" others for brownie points while being condescending and would troll others because he feels inadequate. i.e. a pussy!

Zeta Nerd: Barely noticeable and prefers it that way. Sporadically drops comments in forum threads while giving "TLDR" explanations of why a movie or television series is worthy of your time. Doesn't engage in keyboard shouting matches but is likely to mock or belittle belligerent posters.

Omega Nerd: This particular class of nerd is a force multiplier.  He's a self proclaimed professor of Pop Culture and one who is an influencer with a modicum of talent be it writer or  artist. He despises most remakes and doesn't have reservations of critiquing films  or trends that are cherished among the general consensus and could give a damn what others may say or think about his preferences. He's a dissident who is quick to counterattack when being on the defensive, yet prefers to avoid unnecessary confrontation. Bears minor traits of the Alpha Male as he is uncompromising and although he's not one to start drama, yet doesn't know when to end it!
More of a leader than a follower, the Omega Nerd is the end all to be all!
(Or at least, he thinks he or she is.)

Kappa Nerd: One who mocks others for liking films they deem "low brow" or of poor quality. His/Her preference is esoteric narratives over special effects, action choreography or compelling soundtracks. Will argue that their films are superior to yours while defending any flaws found in theirs. Read: Cinema Snob or elitist.Also tend to be part of some hivemind clique.

Eta Nerd: He or she, likes anything regardless how bad of a movie is, this nerd can appreciate the effort for what it is, or one who settles for less quality yet refuses to recognize better films!

So there ye have it . Today's lesson is over and class dismissed!

Nerd on, you lil' shites!

List of Shame: Celebrities who signed a petition to free Polanski!

The Oscar's is soon approaching and while this year's 55th Academy Awards will take extra precaution due to a silly incident, let’s not forget how the hypocrites from the American Academy of Motion pictures and science, awarded Director "Raping" Roman Polanski for 2004's The Pianist as best picture. As of recent, one of Polanski's biggest fans, Harvey Weinstein has received an additional 16 year sentence for rape and sexual assault but prior to his scandalous trial, which more than 80 women made allegations of sexual harassment and/or rape against the infamous producer. But prior to these allegations, leading to his sentencing, Weinstein formed a petition for the release of notorious Polish filmmaker Roman Polanski who drugged, raped and sodomized a 13-year-old girl, as a result became a fugitive from the U.S. criminal justice system, since 1978, after pledging guilty for his heinous crime. When Polanski was arrested in Zurich, Switzerland, in correlation to h

THE RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD!!!FACT!!!

-

Written by Creepythinman Dan O'Bannon's The Return of the Living Dead is my number one favorite movie and the one I’ve watched more than any other in my lifetime and that’s because the film is a masterpiece of the zombie genre. I used to watch it a few times a week during my childhood and would have it playing in the background, when not studying or banging beaver where I would devour textbooks and pussy like a putrescent corpse eats BRAINS! But I always wondered why this movie above all others fascinated me ever so? It could be because I love zombies and have watched, read and played almost everything to do with them in every form of media. It pleases me that the living dead have rightfully taken their place as the great cinematic monster of our time when they used to be regarded as a mongrel sub-genre before George A. Romero’s seminal masterpiece Night of the Living Dead (1968) became the defining Horror movie of the last century. As I’ve said many times before, there are onl

Miami Vice: Freefall (Review and retrospective of the series finale.)

Miami Vice finale: Freefall (1989) Directed by Russ Mayberry Reviewer’s note: Originally, I planned on doing a write up last year which was the benchmark of this episode’s 30th anniversary but was either sidetracked or too lazy. So now, here we are. We had one hell of a run, didn't we, partner." That quote pretty much sums it all! 1989, was the bookend of the greatest decade of popular culture. The 1980's was on its way out. But before fading out, there was this finale of yet another great series which defined  this exciting decade: NBC's Miami Vice 1984-1989.  This Crime Drama was innovative on so many levels, be it the implementation of adding rock songs within scenarios,  Jan Hammer's amazing soundtrack, adult subject matter that at times were disturbing,  solid character arcs, the introduction of then unknown actors like Julia Roberts, Bruce Willis and Wesley Snipes just to name a few, the bromance between Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs, gorgeous nightlife sc
