It is a quote. That is all.

Zap it.

Agreed. How's this for a replacement? (characters from Revenge Of The Nerds)

I don't know, they don't look particularly skinny. Just average in poorly tailored clothing. There's this.

When I look at that picture I'm not thinking that he's geeky but I'm thinking that there's something physically wrong with him. Is it even from fiction? What about Gretchen Grundler?

Go for 4. 3 looks like a physical illness as well.

Current image is just a quote. Remove it.

4 works OK, but would it be possible to find something that illustrates the "[e]xcept when they are fat" portion as well?

How do we know #4 isn't standard for the artstyle as it is?

Is there a reason to believe it's the general artstyle?

Seeing one image from a particular style, it's closer at hand to assume it's representative than deviating.

How about this? It's from the Your Favorite Martian music video "Nerd Rage".

I like 14. I'd like 16 even better, if it wasn't so badly fuzzy.
