Define Nerdfighter Meaning

Nerdfighter
A person who is not made of flesh and blood, but is, in fact, made of awesome.

Started by brothers John and Hank Green, as a part of the "Brotherhood 2.0" project of 2007, where John and Hank would communicate only through video blogs for an entire year. (youtube.com/vlogbrothers)

The signature move for nerdfighters is Star Trek hands (you know, the funky fingers).

Nerdfighters will be happy to know that the VlogBrothers are going on a "Tour de Nerdfighting" at some point in 2008. (papertowns.com)

Most nerdfighters desperately want to live in an imaginary (or is it) place called "Nerdfighteria" (or Nerdfightaria, depending on spelling).

(from An Abundance of Katherines, a book written by John Green)
"The fans of Brotherhood 2.0 call themselves nerdfighters. A tightknit and extraordinarily dedicated community, the nerdfighters have raised tens of thousands of dollars for charities and political campaigns, taken over the most discussed pages of youtube, and written hundreds of letters to Merriam Webster lobbying for the inclusion of the word "nerdfighter" into the dictionary."

*note: In case you couldn't tell, the term "nerd" is not used dispargingly, but is rather used as a source of pride. If one is a nerd, they should be proud!

CM: Whoa! You got a hundred on your AP World History test!
BW: Yeah, I am such a nerdfighter.
(generally used as a noun, though it can be used as an adjective : nerdfighterish)

Originally defined by the creators of Brotherhood 2.0, a nerdfighter is a nerd who fights jocks using their various ways of nerdfighting. For example a chatspeak nerd might try and confuse you with their l33t way of speaking.

Nerd 01: I hate jocks, they always make fun of me for playing Magic: The Gathering.
Nerd 02: Well, why don't you go nerdfighter on their ass in order to decrease world suck.

Nerdfighter
A nerdfighter is a person who is proud to be nerdy and intelligent, and who fights to decrease WorldSuck. Nerdfighters are not composed of cells and tissue, but instead made entirely of awesome. Nerdfighters are known to perform their Happy dances when they are joyful, and each Happy dance is unique to its respective Nerdfighter. Nerdfighters are diverse in their hobbies, which can range from writing Nerdfighter songs to playing D&D. Nerdfighters have also been described as someone who is "Outgoing, intelligent and awesome enough to accept nerd as a compliment". The polar opposite of a Nerdfighter is a Decepticon.

"I am a Nerdfighter"

"Are you a Nerdfighter? Yes? Then DFTBA!"
By Misti
Nerdfighters
A nerd who fights (against the decepticons -- also known as popular people).

One who is, instead of being made of organs and tissues and whatnot, made of awesome.

The word originated in John and Hank Green's video log projected, called vlogbrothers. While John was in an airport one day (curse those grey speckled walls), he saw a video game called Nerd Fighters.

Thus, the legacy of nerdfighting began.

Nerdfighters, we fight with our brains.
Nerdfighters, we bring the frakkin' pain.

Nerdfighters are proud to be Nerds and fight to decrease WorldSuck.

Instead of being made of bones and organs, they are physically made of awesome.

Can be easily identified by the use of the word jokes.

The opposite of a Nerdfighter is a Decepticon.

"I think that person is humming Accio Deathly Hallows."

"They must be a Nerdfighter!"
