    Default The Big Ban Theory: Mockery on geeks or it makes science appealing?

    What is your opinion on The Big Ban Theory TV show?
    Freedom - When people learn to embrace criticism about politicians, since politicians are just employees like you and me.

    So who did they ban?
    Hope is the denial of reality

    Who bans the banners?
    In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
    The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.

    That doesn't really work. Hmm.

    Who consumes the consumers?

    I used to think about myself as a nerd... until I joined a forum community some years ago, where people were adults, some worked in engineering and physics, and I realized I was no nerd. I suffered from bullying because I made some knowledge accesible to newbies. And I discovered that some felt like they were the masters of wisdom and owners of knowledge, so they felt threatened when I shared what I learned in simple words for newbies.

    They were also very narrow minded. I was foreseen unemployment in US in 2008, and they called me "troll", "socialist", "antiUS", and all kind of coloful adjectives. They warned me and banned me. World economy proved me right.

    They got me into ego wars, and that helped me to be a bit more humble, as having an ego makes you suffer in ego wars. When you are humble, ego becomes irrelevant. You need not to prove anything. So in a way I had personal growth.

    The social inability they had is not just something they suffer, but their hostility is something that I suffered too. I met a few Sheldons there. Quite annoying. Why should I stay where they do not want me.

    Even if it looks like mockery, The Big Bang Theory shows people who are more socially skilled than those nerds in that science forum. So if the first season showed them as dorks, I can tell I have met more dorky nerds. Fortunately I realized I am not that nerd, just another guy, as I am neither an aeronautics engineer, nor a theoretical physicist, nor a researcher or astronomer.

    I have met enthusiasts of nerdy things, who are more socially skilled than those nerds, so I prefe to be with them. What are your experiences as a nerd or experiencies with nerds?

    You're a right bastard, you know what

    Well, now that you changed it to a picture...
