Wil Wheaton's response to a little girl on how to deal with being called a nerd.
On behalf of those of us who grew up hoping to one day be Astroboy's best friend or to travel in the Tardis with The Doctor - I thank you, Wil Wheaton.
TAKE AWAY:
What he said...
Yay for Wil! I had such a crush on him when I was 12 :-)
ReplyDeleteI still have one.
DeleteI love his response.
ReplyDeleteHe's my hero.
DeleteSo completely awesome! Got a little teary eyed on this one! :)
ReplyDeleteMe too. It really hit home.
DeleteHe was so right. People that do that are messed up, damaged, and negative, and they just want to make others feel what they feel.
ReplyDeleteI hate to see that dynamic with my students. Since I'm the biggest nerd in the world, I can validate those kids.
DeleteI showed this clip to my 5th grade class. It was very powerful.
ReplyDeleteExcellent advice and so well said.
ReplyDeleteI never paid attention to him in the ST: NG series, but I love him in the Big Bang Theory. I wish someone would do a psychological study of why children bully others. I bet it has something to do with pack dominance, or hormones, or sexual competition.
ReplyDeleteI never liked Wil Wheaton on TNG but I love his TableTop web series. He also did an amazing job narrating Ready Player One as an audiobook and I listen to that a lot. This little clip is awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love your choice for a W word. And also your choice of video clips :)
ReplyDeleteSomeone posted that on Facebook a week or so ago. Very inspiring. I'm one of many people who know Wil Wheaton from The Big Bang Theory. I didn't realize he was on Stand By Me until they mentioned it on the show! (He plays himself on The Big Bang Theory.)
ReplyDeleteI think Wheaton has finally found the groove he unknowingly went in search of all those years ago. The ultimate nerd's nerd.
ReplyDeleteI love Will Wheaton :)
ReplyDeleteI remember the first time I was called a nerd in my Confirmation class, I was so hurt but now I take it in my stride. I'm a nerd and proud!! Thankyou for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteI say many thanks to Mr. admin website I read this, because in this website I know a lot of information information that I did not know before his
