The nerd hangouts are more numerous and larger overall.  Unfortunately they are also filled to the brim with smelly, shitty, fats who are the worst sort of nerd.  It has gotten bad enough that I don't even mention anything nerdy just so I don't have to be associated/talk to the self-entitled shit-stains.  And I used to stick up for us nerds back in the day, fighting bullies and whatnot.
