Nerds, Dykes, Niggers, Dweebs, Fags, Bimbos, and Geeks

Igor asks:

Originally, it referred to a carnival sideshow character who killed
chickens by biting off their heads.

It now means a social misfit, and we all know that computer programmers
have no normal life.

Don't ask why I'm online at 10 PM Friday night.
