    It’s a show that normalized hot women dating nerds.

    Nerds hate this for some reason.

      …I don’t want to date women, so I know know how that’s relevant.

        Sorry, I didn’t realize that you were a psychopath that only cares about your own interests.

          So, let me unpack what happened, from my point of view. I’m not complaining or anything, just pointing out how it seemed from my end.

          I made a comment that I personally didn’t like the show because of how many times people around kept saying I was like the main character.

          You replied directly to me implying that nerds should like the show because it normalizes dating them. (Which I agree is a good thing.)

          I replied to say that doesn’t apply to me, and I’m not sure why it was relevant to my comment.

          Finally, you left a comment to call me names.

          Do you see how that entire interaction makes no sense from my side of things? I said that I didn’t like a show, and you inserted yourself into the conversation to complain that hot women should want to date me because of the show. Then, when I said that had nothing to do with what I was saying, you insulted me.

          So, like, why?

      implying hot women can’t also be nerds and that nerdy men can’t be hot

      also implying that a generic sitcom is, in any way, responsible for the way society treats nerds and not the invention of the fact that our modern world is largely nerd creations, resulting in a lot of wealthy nerds

        Implying that the number of women in STEM fields is exactly the same as the number of men.

        Also implying that a sitcom isn’t important why it comes to influencing people’s perceptions while also being angry over that same sitcom.

        Also implying that nerds shouldn’t be successful? I don’t even know what you’re even trying to say.
