For me that's a combination of cringe and pity.

Like, I've known a lot of nerds like that who WANT to look nice and be clean, but they had simply never learned how to dress themselves appropriately or they'd never really learned proper hygiene. Their parents never taught them how to wash their hair, for example, or they never had someone to tell them "those pants don't fit right in the back". They know they look bad but they don't know what steps to take to fix it.

But it also makes me cringe because barring some pretty serious disability, there's really no excuse for hygiene that's so bad I can smell you across the room. Or dressing like a sentient pile of laundry with cat ears.

I mean, when I was homeless I dressed and bathed better than many nerds seemingly manage to. Hell, even when my depression and PTSD and anxiety were at the point where I could only handle being in public every few months and I couldn't even look at people's faces without flipping out and I was self-medicating by binge drinking and doing all the drugs all the time, I still managed that.

"Their parents never taught them how to wash their hair"

Okay but how can you not manage to figure out how to wash your hair on your own even without being taught? It's not like it's complicated, you literally just apply shampoo, scrub, then rinse. Hell, even just taking a shower with water will wash off most of the stink.
