No, nerds are generally seen as smart, if slightly out of touch with most other people (other nerds excluded). However, being a nerd WILL get you made fun of, if only out of jealousy. Remember Bill Gates' famous speech about High school, "Be nice to nerds, you might end up working for one."

Is it bad to be a nerd?
It's not bad to be a nerd, it's simply that nerds..and the meaning of nerd, is very misunderstood. Generally, I refer to nerds as people that has a high degree of intelligence in a given area or areas and prefers to talk about those subjects more then anything else. As the "official" definitions go, this could explain why they are considered as "socially inept". I do not consider that a bad thing though, not everybody needs to be social.
