History
DFTBA comes from John's October 2nd Brotherhood 2.0 vlog. While driving back to Indianappolis, John discusses a nerdfighter outlet mall with a Put stuff on your head, a peeps outlet, and a pineapple nerdfighting pants outlet. At the end of the vlog in a P.P.P.S., John reminds Hank to, like it says on his friend Katie's arm, DFTBA.
Notes
DFTBA is best compared to the phrase: "Don't forget to be awesome." A nerdfighter is inherently awesome, and needs not to remember to be so. Most nerdfighters are born awesome or have become so through a series of events that turn them into nerds.
For example:
- Buying a Yo-Yo and becoming the Yo-Yo Champion
- Anagramming as a hobby
- Wearing Darth Vader pajamas...your whole life.
- Memorizing all of the lines to movies/TV shows such as Star Wars, any Harry Potter movie, Star Trek, ect.
- Having a great number of nerdy obsession.
- Reading completely awesome books!(Not just one but several...all the time...and with speed and understanding).
- Taking "nerd" as a compliment all the time.
- Rather read than go on a social media site.
- Using correct grammar.
- (Optional) Having a great deal of irrational fears.
