nerd

Someone, usually a techie gone over the edge, who is so overly intellectual and abstruse as to be regarded as socially inept, unsophisticated, awkward, unattractive, or otherwise exceedingly obnoxious, odd, or unpleasant.The word first appeared in Dr. Seuss’s book If I Ran the Zoo (1950) as the name of an imaginary animal. In the book, the narrator Gerald McGrew plans to collect a number of imaginary animals for his imaginary zoo. McGrew states, “And then, just to show them, I’ll sail to Ka-Troo And Bring Back an It-Kutch a Preep and a Proo A Nerkle a Nerd and a Seersucker, too!”. A good techie can be invaluable. A nerd can also be invaluable, even though obnoxious. See also geek and techie.
