Listen up, you silly goose! This joke is playing on the double meaning of "hanging." Emos are known for being all sad and mopey, and sometimes folks mistakenly think they are all trying to off themselves by hanging, you get it? And the nerd "leaves them hanging," as in, leaves them in suspense or doesn't help them out. I know, I know, it's still not that funny, but you wouldn't get it, you potato!
