Hi Everybody,
Anyone ever seen Rocket Power on Nick? The character Sam? The others call him a 'squid'. How come geeks or smart people are portrayed in negative light? Other examples are:- Gizmo in Beetle Bailey Kenny in Beyblade G-Revolution Dliton in Archie's comics I might be missing out a dozen others but this habit has been ingrained in our pop culture.

Well, they're often seen in an overly negative light in the real world as well. Art imitates life, after all. | |||

Atleast sometimes they save the day and get the girl.
As for Sam being 'squid' I was always under the impression that they call him that because he is the new kid in the group. Twister was once called 'squid' By the way, it's 'squid' These are Squibs It also serves as a word used in Harry Potter. Which brings me to show that Hermoine is considerably smart and while she is made fun of and the likes, she does share the positive view when dealing with mature and sensible people who praise her and congratulate her for her achievements.

Originally posted by Thoughtless I believe you're correct on this. I forget the exact details, but Sam inherits the "Squid" title on the basis of being the new kid, as you said. |
