It’s funny. I’m definitely a nerd and neuro-something-or-other, and I have really good friends who are into all this stuff, Linux, Terry Pratchett etc - all of it - but I absolutely bounced off this smug nerd culture and grind my teeth if a group all start yelling “Ni!” or make me listen to the “hilarious” Portal song. Possibly I’m just trying too hard to be an arch, diffident outsider, this is my tribe, and I’m just the tribe jerk.
I feel you. I often hate things because too many people annoy me by liking them too much but ya know that's nebulous and stupid. As I've gotten older I've just kinda stopped letting that happen and try to give things a chance
