Nerd Sniping

What is Nerd Sniping?


1.

The act of presenting an interesting problem to a certain type of nerd, usually a physicist or a mathematician, while he/she is crossing the road, in such a manner that he/she becomes so occupied with it that he/she is soon run over.

First defined on xkcd.

"There's a certain type of brain that's easily disabled. If you show it an interesting problem, it involuntary drops everything else to work on it. This has led to me to evolve a new sport: Nerd Sniping."

See xkcd, comic, nerd, geek, sniping

2.

A sport based on the use of difficult problems to stump and/or stop nerds in their tracks.

I put problems from the GLAT on poster board to have some fun nerd sniping. Man, is it easy!
