Ha! I love this! More precise than any differentiation I usually think of, but very a propos!

LOL.

I'm often amused at the way that nowadays intelligence is somehow considered to be an undesirable characteristic in pop culture.

+1 to that!

It's both funny and extremely sad at the same time.

Hey in the diagram Intelligence by itself is just intelligence. Combine with Obsession or socail ineptitude and it becomes undesirable.

So, intelligence somehow makes social ineptitude worse than the latter would be on its own?

I would swap nerd and geek, but it's a funny diagram nonetheless.

The diagram doesn't really say one way or another if any of the traits are bad. I would think that being called a dweeb would be less insulting than being called socially inept.
