This school has a lot of fun spirit days, most of which are nice and innocent fun little jokes that don’t offend anyone, but one day in particular DOES offend, that day is Nerd Day.
Nerd Day is the most celebrated and talked about Spirit Day at school, and it seems odd that it would be too, considering that geeks and nerds such are treated poorly by other students. Yet on Nerd Day many in the school stereotype nerds and dress incredibly offensively to carry out that stereotype.
Now to normal people this is not offensive, in fact, it’s funny and charming, however to nerds such as myself, this is a blatant insult to how I look and act. I do not have the goofy teeth or glasses displayed nor do any of my fellow nerds. We look just as normal as anyone else. I realize the seriousness of this day is none whatsoever, it’s all just a fun joke, people shouldn’t treat nerds like a joke when we aren’t a joke.
