      Back in the 80's, nerds were easily identifiable.

      If you spent your time playing computer games instead of real games, were pale and lanky, you were a nerd. Bonus points if you played D&D or read books for fun.

      Now everyone seems to qualify.

      Everyone in high school looks pale and lanky. They all have their noses buried in their digital devices.

      Does the concept not even exist anymore?

      Or do I just no longer "get it"?
