"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary I insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying "You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."
