Question about the Knight Rider Fan Nickname

Post by knightsangel » Sat Feb 24, 2007 12:07 am

:?: :?: Dear KR Fans,

Is it true what David and Kitt [not William Daniels voice] said about that the KR fans refer ourselves as Knerds, or is it n-e-r-d-s? Based on the Q& A. :oops: Sorry, that wasn't an insult. :oops: What does Knerds stand for? I never knew we were called Knerds. :)

It's just a fan joke, On the title of the episode. :D

Actually, David once referred to Knight Rider fans as "Knighties" :)

I have to admit though, Knerds fits better. Apart from the play on the word and the episode title, I'd say "nerd" describes most of us better anyway :oops:
Michael: "KITT! Where are ya?!"

So true! Since many of us are into hi-tech stuff due to KITT being such a high-tech car and all that. Knerds I'd go with. Knighties? Forget it. Too feminine. :lol:

No objections here! :lol: I'm not ashamed of my nerdiness. :D
