Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GCS/M>IT/CC/P>TW@]

Geek of Computer Science, Geek of Math. But someday I'd like to say: "Geek of Information Technology, Geek of Communications, Geek of Philosophy." But someday I'd like to say: "Geek of Technical Writing But that varies...."

GEEK DRESS CODE [dpu(!)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I wear the same clothes all the time, no matter the occasion, forgetting to do laundry between wearings.", to: "No clothing. Quite a fashion statement, don't you think?"

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s--:+++>-]

I look up to damn near everybody. I take up three movie seats. But someday I'd like to say: "Everyone tells me to gain a few pounds."

GEEK AGE CODE [a21(?)>+++$]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I am 21 years old.", to: "I am immortal." But someday I'd like to say: "My age is 60 and up. Getting paid for it!"

GEEK COMPUTERS CODE [C++++>$]

I'll be first in line to get the new cybernetic interface installed into my skull. But someday I'd like to say: "Getting paid for it!"

GEEK UNIX CODE [U]

I have a unix account to do my stuff in.

GEEK PERL CODE [P+]

I know of perl. I like perl. I just haven't learned much perl, but it is on my agenda.

GEEK GNU/LINUX CODE [L]

I know what GNU/Linux is, but that's about all.

GEEK EMACS CODE [E---(----)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Emacs sucks! vi forever!!!", to: "Emacs sucks! pico forever!!!"

GEEK WORLD WIDE WEB CODE [W++()]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I have a homepage. I surf daily. My homepage is advertised in my .signature.", to: "I have a browser and a connection. Occasionally I'll use them. "

GEEK USENET CODE [N-]

News is a waste of my time and I avoid it completely.

GEEK USENET ORACLE CODE [o?]

Usenet Oracle? I don't even know what that is...

GEEK KIBO CODE [K+++>++++++@]

I've gotten mail from Kibo. But someday I'd like to say: "I am Kibo. But that varies..."

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w--@(++)>$]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "MS Windows is a joke operating system. Hell, it's not even an operating system. NT is Not Tough enough for me either. 95 is how may times it will crash an hour. But that varies...", to: "I write MS Windows programs in C and think about using C++ someday. I've written at least one DLL." But someday I'd like to say: "Getting paid for it!"

GEEK OS/2 CODE [!O?]

I refuse to categorize myself on OS/2. OS/2? I don't even know what that is...

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M--]

Macs do more than suck. They make a user stupid by allowing them to use the system without knowing what they are doing. Mac weenies have lower IQs than the fuzz in my navel.

GEEK VMS CODE [!V--]

I refuse to categorize myself on VMS. But if I did participate in this category, I would characterize myself as follows: "I would rather smash my head repeatedly into a brick wall than suffer the agony of working with VMS. It's reminiscent of a dead and decaying pile of moose droppings. Unix rules the universe."

GEEK POLITICS & SOCIAL ISSUES CODE [PS(+)>++]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I really don't have an opinion; nobody's messing with my freedoms right now.", to: "My whole concept of liberalism is that nobody has the right to tell anybody else what to do, on either side of the political fence. If you don't like it, turn the bloody channel." But someday I'd like to say: "I give to liberal causes. I march for gay rights. I'm a card carrying member of the ACLU. Keep abortion safe and legal."

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [PE-(--)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "It's ok to increase government spending, so we can help more poor people. Tax the rich! Cut the defense budget!", to: "Capitalism is evil! Government should provide the services we really need. Nobody should be rich."

GEEK CYPHERPUNKS CODE [Y-->]

Get a life. The only people that need this kind of protection are people with something to hide. I think cypherpunks are just a little paranoid. But someday I'd like to say: "I'm pretty indifferent on the whole issue."

GEEK PGP CODE [PGP--(+)>+++]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I feel that the glory of the Internet is in the anarchic, trusting environment that so nurtures the exchange of information. Encryption just bogs that down.", to: ""Finger me for my public key"." But someday I'd like to say: "I don't send or answer mail that is not encrypted, or at the very least signed. If you are reading this without decrypting it first, something is wrong. IT DIDN'T COME FROM ME!"

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [t+(*)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "It's a damn fine TV show and is one of the only things good on television any more.", to: "I identify with Barclay, the greatest of the Trek Geeks."

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [5-(--)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "This show is sub-par. The acting is wooden, the special effects are obviously poor quality. In general, it seems like a very cheap Star Trek ripoff.", to: "You call this Sci-Fi? That is such a load of crap! This show is just a soap with bad actors, piss-poor effects, and lame storylines. Puh- leese. "

GEEK X FILES CODE [X]

Ho hum. Just another Fox show.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R(++)>-]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Role-Playing? That's just something to do to kill a Saturday afternoon.", to: "There is no life outside the role of the die. I know all of the piddly rules of (chosen game). _MY_ own warped rules scare the rest of the players." But someday I'd like to say: "Gosh, what an utter waste of time!"

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv(--)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I watch only the shows that are actually worthwhile, such as those found on PBS.", to: "I turn my tv on during natural disasters."

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b++@>+++]

I find the time to get through at least one new book a month. But that varies... But someday I'd like to say: "I consume a few books a week as part of a staple diet."

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI---@>++$]

I don't think it's funny to make fun of managers trying their best to run their organizational units. But that varies... But someday I'd like to say: "I work with people that act a lot like Dilbert and his boss. Getting paid for it!"

GEEK DOOM CODE [D++>++++$]

I've played the shareware version and bought the real one and I'm actually pretty good at the game. I occasionally download PWAD files and play them too. But someday I'd like to say: "I work for iD Software. Getting paid for it!"

THE GEEK CODE [G(-)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I know what the geek code is and even did up this code.", to: "What a tremendous waste of time this Geek Code is."

GEEK EDUCATION CODE [e*>++]

I learned everything there is to know about life from the "Hitchhiker's Trilogy". But someday I'd like to say: "Got a Baccalaureate degree."

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h!>*]

I am stuck living with my parents! But someday I'd like to say: "I'm not sure where I live anymore. This lab/workplace seems like home to me."

GEEK RELATIONSHIPS CODE [r---]

I'm beginning to think that I'm a leper or something, the way people avoid me like the plague.

GEEK SEX CODE [y+]

Male. I've had real, live sex.
