Once you dip your toes into nerd culture, there's no going back—it pulls you in like a black hole, and suddenly you're lightyears away from "normal." It starts innocently enough: a friend tells you to watch Star Wars, and next thing you know, you're knee-deep in The Expanse while comparing Star Trek captains and buying model ships for your shelf. Maybe you crack open The Hobbit one day, and the next you're shouting battle cries during a Dungeons & Dragons campaign, surrounded by dice and snacks and fellow nerds who take role-playing very seriously.
What's "cool" also flips on its head. Rockstars and athletes? Meh. Now it's people who spend hours crafting intricate cosplays that make you stop at conventions and shout, "That's the coolest thing I've ever seen!" And guess what? It is cool—super cool. So embrace the nerdery. Whether it's fantasy, sci-fi, gaming, or something totally obscure, don't let anyone tell you what's cool. If you love it, that's all that matters. Nerd out loud.
