I myself kind of like to be called a nerd but when it is meant to be hurtful people usually do it because they are smarter than them in some fields and it makes them feel better to pick on someone else.

I used to be a big nerd and got made of constantly, it really goes away after you hit college, you migh catch some kind of issue in college with this, but really being a nerd is soo much of an advantage. So what if you gotta put up with immature people being assholes, 5-10 years down the line, those same people are struggling to get by (popularity only gets you so far.) while your flourishing with a good career and a good life.
Really to answer your question, they know that you will crush them mentally and feel insecure so they have to use there physicality and insecurities to bring you down to their level. They see the future, dead end job, bar stool with there signature on it, 1989 ford taurus with 300,000 miles and no lining on the seats, and they ENVY you.
Nothing wrong with being a nerd trust me, you want to talk more email me.

People make fun of nerds for 2 reasons:
1) They are intimidated by someone more intelligent than themselves.
2) They get temporarily relief from feeling insignificant by making someone else feel less significant than themselves.
Next time someone says you're a nerd, just tell them "Wow... That was freaking original..." After a few times, they will stop.

I know it makes NO sense.. it's usually the "nerds" that get the last laugh.. because they generally stay focused on the task at had and get better paying jobs due to their "nerdiness" and the non nerds wind up with a "great" career as a McDonald's Crew Chief..HAHA... LOL.... I never laugh at nerds anymore...♥☺♪
Be blessed!

People always make fun of what's different.
It's not right, but it's true.
If you're a bit out of the "norm" than most-likeyly kids are gonna poke fun.
Exspecially the plastic ones.
