The mainstream popularity of geek culture is on the rise, as comic book fans and computer techies become the new heartthrobs thanks to movies and TV shows like 'The Big Bang Theory' -- but the 'Hot Chicks Misidentifying as Nerds' blog aims to separate the "real" geeks from the so-called dorks.
The Tumblr page features Twitter and Facebook posts from self-proclaimed nerdy girls around the world who, in reality, appear to be quite popular and maybe not so dorky after all. Meant to be taken as nothing more than lighthearted fun, the blog is full of funny tongue-in-cheek posts like, "I love history omg I'm such a nerd," and my personal favorite, "Headed to the library...I'm such a geek..."
With the growing number of hilarious niche Tumblrs out there, it was only a matter of time before a blog dedicated to faux-dorks popped up. Check out 'Hot Chicks Misidentifying as Nerds' for a hilarious break from you day.
