Hint 1: Clue Explanation
▼I see a “dweeb” as someone who might be made fun of, and a TWERP as the person who might make fun of the “dweeb.” I’m not sure they are synonymous, at least in terms of modern usage. TWERP is defined as “a silly, insignificant, or contemptible person” according to merriam-webster.com, and a “dweeb” is defined as “an unattractive, insignificant, or inept person.” If you solve for x, of course, the commonality is insignificance, which is unpleasant, but the difference, to me at least, is intent.
