Dorks (5)
I believe the answer is:
nerds
'dorks' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for nerds that I've seen before include "People considered boring because of obsessive hobbies or narrow solitary interests" , "Boringly studious people" , "Geeks" , "They can be boringly studious, perhaps lacking social skills" , "Boringly studious types" .)
