[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a coworker always calling herself a nerd. Yet she wasn’t very smart or organized nor good at her job. It was pretty ironic and sad. [/quote] What does this have to do with the conversation at hand?[/quote] Everyone’s defining quirky differently. And flat out wrongly.[/quote] It’s not a case of definition, it’s a case of connotation. And it is very frequently used to describe kids with mild neurological or learning differences. Anyone using it in a different context should be aware of that, because that’s the connotation that will come to mind for many people seeing it. And that *doesn’t* seem to be how OP is using it.
