NERD: Historical Considerations by tommie on 2000-09-29 08:51:00

Ho boy...
Can anyone find an earlier reference to "nerd" than this one?

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!

- If I Ran the Zoo, by Dr. Seuss, 1950

  Funny, I actually remember reading an ancient wall-painting daubed with an isosceles and alongside, the quote 'It's a f*cking isosceles, you bastard!'

  When you start upon life's quest 
To stand head and shoulders above the rest, 
Then set your troubles aside with ease 
And seek the wisdom of Isosoles

In seeking to finally improve your fate 
And heap success upon your plate 
The Yings from the Yangs you separate 
And Triangulate, Triangulate, Triangulate! 

Triangulate! Every chaos you can create 
Can raise you higher, ain't it great? 
So don't sit there and meditate; 
Triangulate, Triangulate, Triangulate! 

Allow no difference to abate 
As merrily through life you skate, 
Turning friendships into hate, 
Triangulate, Triangulate, Triangulate! 

As a friend to all you'll elevate 
And find yourself the Chief of state 
Pitting black against white, man against mate 
While you Triangulate, Triangulate, Triangulate!
