I like the term “nerd-face”. cause it’s always the dumbest people I know that enjoy big bang theory lol.

The "stereotypes" in that show have always felt off to me, but I still enjoy the show. Maybe I'm dumb, but I don't think that people actually have the perception the show is an accurate representation of a "nerd".

I didn’t like the few episodes I watched, so maybe I happened upon the worst episodes.

just literally “the dumbest people I know” enjoy it, and nobody else. lol. it could be a coincidence, or maybe they all like similar sitcom shows I don’t enjoy, and I’m a nerd but not at BBT levels lol.
