David Brooks Wishfully, Wrongly Believes the Chinese Have No Word for 'Nerd'

Whenever you hear someone explain that a concept is so foreign to this or that culture that people cannot even use their language to describe it, it is safe to assume your passport has just been stamped for entry into the Land of Bullshit.

David Brooks is great and writing things that have the ring of truth to them, that just make sense. Unfortunately, the truth is often nonsensical, even jarringly so. So it's safe to say that Brooks is basically a potato head.
