In modern culture, the word “nerd” is usually used to describe someone who is intellectual but socially awkward and often has an obsessive passion for something. This could be a TV show, a game, or the history of one small ancient Egyptian town.

For whatever reason, some people think that calling someone a nerd is derogatory, but you know what? If there is something that makes you happy and genuinely interests you, don’t mind anyone else; just enjoy what you like.
 
You can use your knowledge to create some clever pick-up lines. And if the person you’re trying to impress happens to also like the same thing, that gives you bonus points. A word of warning, though. If you use pick-up lines when meeting someone for the first time, make sure they don’t make the other person uncomfortable. You do want them to like you, right? So maybe bold pick-up lines shouldn’t open the conversation unless you are completely sure your counterpart won’t mind them.
 
Funny pick-up lines are a great tool to break the ice but don’t forget that humor is rather subjective, and even if you can’t stop laughing at your own joke, someone else might find that you make rather cheesy pick-up lines. So assess your words carefully.

In this article, we’ve collected the best pick-up lines for a flirty conversation with nerds. What are some good pick-up lines if you want to impress someone you just met? Do you have a go-to nerdy pick-up line that you are particularly proud of making up?

    A friend of mine said something similar to me. She said "Star" instead of thing. Without missing a beat, I replied "No need. They'd be stupid if they didn't notice the increased gravitational pull of Earth." For those that did not get it, I basicaly made a joke about my weight. XD
