Do you go to the gym?

During a discussion with some of my acquaintances about stereotypes, the stereotype of a nerd came up.

The stereotype was the general: they are weak and have never been to a gym or exercised in their life.

I thought this poll would be interesting, so we can see if there is any truth in those stereotypes (for SCIENCE) well maybe not

I personally think that @Slick would be our prime example against this stereotype because, I mean, have you seen him?

 

Anyway, the poll is anonymous, so don't be afraid to answer 'no'.

 

(If this is a re-post, sorry, I tried searching for it and found nothing)

A JRPG just wouldn't be a JRPG if it didn't end with teenagers using the power of friendship to kill God.

Gyms are a fucking waste of money.

You can seriously work out without an expensive membership.

Treadmills? Jog in the park.

Lifting weights? Well. Just lift anything that has some weight to it?

I've seen a lot of forum members identify themselves as nerds (myself being one of them)

On and off. It's annoying because I have to go with my sister if I want to go, and we always get into a fight because she's irrational and an idiot.

Ketchup is better than mustard.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Dubs are better than subs
