So like there is levels of nerddom that we've all experienced, which I love about the ending when all these people come out of the stands, because it's that feeling of like we had to hide ourselves and because the popular kids would beat you up, which I got beat up, or would make fun of you, ridicule you, embarrass you in class, and no one else would step up to defend you.

And this movie, in a way, shows that what's coming, that the speech by Gilbert at the end Like he's saying this, this is essentially a shot across the bow of what's to come because he's saying essentially that nerds deserve respect, deserve their place in society.

I assume you're here because you're interested in biology, and if you are, that makes sense, because like any good 50 Cent song, biology is just about sex and not dying.

This is more nominations than anyone else ever in history, and the number of times he won is roughly the same number of times that everyone else in the world has won, which is zero.
