For second when I read the title, I thought the thread was about me.
The smartest idiot you will ever meet.

Yeah, I want to be more social for my own sake.

Unless you're trying to get a job or are in some other situation where other people's opinions are really, really important.

Yeah. But other than that

Oh, yeah. Other than that, yeah, crack on.
I myself am a huge fan of certain stereotypes and have adopted them with gusto!

I have to be physically fit myself; job requires it. PT every morning at 0600 keeps me in shape, especially Sgt. Baer PT.
Just a random interjection.
In uffish thought
On the other hand, I unintentionally fit the "inactive" part of the stereotype as I'm unwell and unable to do sport or much physical activity. Guess that gives me more time waste here!

Oh, certainlzy, screw sports, who the hell cares about sports, as such, especially competitive ones. One has a life.
No, I mean that one should simply stay fit.
Also, socializing is simply for the sake of meeting and getting to know new and interesting people, whose companionship may improve the experience of your life in one way or another.
Many non-nerds make the sacrifice of spending time with people for the sake of spending time with people, not doing anything intersting or profitable in the meantime, failing to even improve their own capacity to socialize.
Do not fall into that trap: if you would learn more in an hour by reading a book than by hanging around people who seem to go out of ther way to be socially stagnant, read a damned book.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Impossible Gender Forge
I'm totally a nerd.
I still have a good number of friends.
A large portion of which are female, oddly enough.
Humans inferior. Ultron superior.

True, that.
This is all the more important for me since I am an aspiring writer.

You should do things for your own sake, instead of concerning yourself with what other people think of you.
