Appears some people define Nerd rage as just some spaz attack. Never heard that till to day. Not the definition I use.
If the TMNT's did not like Pizza in the new movie...that's another example.
"I got that Nerd Rage" is from Ray William Johnsons song. I guess i wrongly assumed all knew of this type pf thing. *shrugs*

Anyway its better then the net nanny crap,,,,
Spell it right and use it right, you fuck.
Argh.
"When thinking about how Spidey is mistreated, I find it amazing he still goes on doing good. This type of characterization in the story points to a virtue like humility and makes me want to emulate it in my own life. So, when someone attacks the Spidey story or tries to change it as they did in that gawd awful movie that came out this year, it can make me feel as if they’re saying my own story is meaningless.
That, my friends, is the essence of nerd rage. When someone takes your hero and, in your eyes, devalues them you get defensive at your best and angry at your worst."
This is a interesting analysis of the phenomenon
The one and only time I gave into nerd rage, this happened:
Suffice it to say, I'll never give in again.

considering that this double post thing doesn't seem to happen to others on here, I'd have to bet that its your phone.

Exactly. It's "ass burgers", not "asbergers".
I've never identified myself as a "nerd" even though I enjoy many things that "nerds" typically do. What makes "nerd rage" different from other kinds of rage?
Hmm, its interesting that this is has been associated with outburst and actual rage. I've read about it on many places on the net and its never really been about that kind of reactionary outburst. Of course many words and phrases have multiple or varying meanings so not a huge surprise, just interesting to see the difference.

Nah, I'm sure it's Jay's fault.

It's silly.

Well that is interesting question as it depends on your outlook on rage. So many words are used improperly or in slang or figures of speech that rage could be have different meanings and those different meanings to different people could effect the answer.
To put it in a somewhat crass but blunt and clear way, It was explained to me as being upset over things other people dont give a shit about. And while it was called rage it was not really about kicking over stuff and tantrum type rage.
One thing that got me going on a Nerd Rage rant was the Ending of Star Wars EP 3. I thought the ending was sloppy and did not give us a proper lead in to the events of ANH. But the real Nerd Rage came from the Corvettes blue stripe.....ARGHH! How hard would have been to make it red to match up with the Tantive IV? And then the lame excuses for it afterwords.
Nerd rage is basically absurdism without any charm.

Silly me I forget the most important part that should really answer your question. DUH on me.
The most important distinction is that Nerd Rage applies specifically to Nerd or geek type subjects. Such as Sci/fantasy/horror film Console/pC/Tabletop/RPG's Comics, TV shows and Literature from the same genera.

I disagree there. I think this article helps explain its beneficial nature.
