Is this how "nerds" are supposed to talk or something?

No. It's because he is a fucking super weirdo. I wouldn't consider Dwight a nerd, more of a pansy ass.

Nah, saying "question" before asking the question is just another way of saying "I have a question" before asking the question. No one knows why people say it instead of just asking and getting to the point, but I bet it's more mannerly than nerdy.

The above anon is correct.

I do it too. Mostly because I purposly talk weird (lolcat, moron, etc). Saying 'Question' before a question just adds to it… Kinda
