What is Nerd Emergency?
1.
A Nerd Emergency is the sudden realization that the remaining battery of an electronic device, commonly a laptop, is critically low. When a Nerd Emergency occurs, the 'victim' nerd shouts "Nerd Emergency" causing surrounding nerds to flock to the aid of the 'victim'. A collective effort ensues to connect the electronic device to a power source before it loses power completly.
Nerd 1 (victim): NERD EMERGENCY!!! NERD EMERGENCY!!!
Nerd 2: Begins to untangle power cord
Nerd 3: Locates nearest wall outlet
Nerd 4: Connects power cord to electronic device
Nerd 1: anxiously watches and bites his nails
Nerd 2: Plugs power cord into the outlet located by nerd 3
Nerd 1: Goes back to fixing his ever-broken (but still better than windows) linux distribution
