Amy Bishop

Dr. Amy Bishop was a Professor of Neuroscience at the University of Alabama and a certified nerd (and likely Aspie). In a classic example of long-suppressed Nerd Rage and a hilarious twist to the usual endless string of jenkem or 4chan-induced school shootings, 44-year-old Professor Amy, a girl, pulled out a Glock and proceeded to calmly pwn six of her distinguished colleagues, including her boss. Three of them died, with the other three loudly protesting her choice of venue and demanding a rematch via World of Warcraft, the usual arena for angry, odd-looking social rejects to settle disagreements amongst themselves.

According to her campus biography, Bishop holds a doctorate in genetics from Harvard. In 2008, University President David Williams predicted that one of her cell-research advances would "change the way biological and medical research is conducted." Her colleagues, on the other hand, described her as "creepy" and "always within striking distance of the edge". She was pretty much a classic Aspie, fixated on her particular narrow field of research and constantly pissing off her co-workers by refusing to talk about anything else. You know you're pretty fucking irritating when even the other super nerds think you're a douchebag.

In any case, Bishop was apparently not happy with the school: almost nobody liked her, and in the months before the shooting she had been denied a tenured faculty position (probably having something to do with her being a creepy bitch who nobody wanted to work with). Rather than taking this as a sign that she needed to be less of an asshole, getting denied tenure was the event which apparently caused her to cross the nerd event horizon separating "hugbox dweller" from "100% batshit insane". As we see, historically Amy has a bit of a problem controlling her anger...
