If we're already dragging Tolkien into this, just say "tallest hobbit", it's fine.

Historical warhammers had multiple ends, it depends on what kind of business you wanted to do.

Real question about nerds though: do people make fun of nerds because they are jealous or what? I wish I was as smart as the nerds at school were.

If I was smarter would I like sci-fi and fantasy and poo poo? Is it crappy to me because I can’t bring it to life in my brain?

No, they make fun of nerds because nerds are socially awkward.

Those nerds may or may not be able to translate their relative intelligence into professional success later in their lives, and at that point it is indeed possible that people are jealous of their material possessions and/or financial stability.

People make fun of nerds because they're different and they're a safe, easy target. What are they gonna do? Beat you up? The jealousy thing is just something moms of bullied nerds say.

My friend I'm afraid that if the intricacies of the us vs the nerds mentality was lost on you then you may have been a nerd. It was 100% a social thing that had nothing to do with intelligence. Being isolated from the actually fulfilling parts of being a kid/teen means that nerds tend to lose themselves in other stuff. Nerdy stuff.

If you're an Old I can get the confusion, back in the 70s and 80s "nerd" usually referred to someone who actually was smart and had an interest in useful and lucrative fields like electrical engineering and computer programming but was awkward or dressed weird. But Revenge of the Nerds gave way to Comic Book Guy in the 90s and much like how Radio Shack went from selling actual electrical components to selling toys and cell phones the word "nerd" is now mostly associated with people who think consuming electronic entertainment or esoteric hobbies means you're smart.
