The thick framed glasses that are now 'popular' and are seen being worn by many hipsters/people trying to be 'stylish'. And they're actually called BUDDY HOLLYS/BUDDY HOLLY GLASSES.
Idiot: "Oh, I just love those nerd glasses, they are sooo trendyyy!" Me: "You mean those Buddy Holly's?" Idiot: "..Who the hell is Buddy Holly?" Me: "*facepalm*"
Nerd glasses are either glasses that have lenses or don't. When you're wearing ones with lenses, they look a bit more realistic. When you're wearing ones without lenses, you look like a nerd, meaning you also pretend to be an intelligent person, since they wear glasses too.
Check out my nerd glasses! They do not have any lenses! Now I can go out and pretend I'm somebody else! LOL
