Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GAT]

Geek of All Trades.

GEEK DRESS CODE [d-(--)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I'm usually in jeans and a t-shirt.", to: "My t-shirts go a step further and have a trendy political message on them."

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s:]

I'm an average geek.

GEEK AGE CODE [a--]

My age is 20-24.

GEEK COMPUTERS CODE [C++()]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Computers are a large part of my existence. When I get up in the morning, the first thing I do is log myself in. I play games or mud on weekends, but still manage to stay off of academic probation.", to: "Computers are a tool, nothing more. I use it when it serves my purpose."

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. But someday I'd like to say: "Perl is a powerful programming tool. I don't write shell scripts anymore because I write them in Perl."

GEEK GNU/LINUX CODE [L>++]

I know what GNU/Linux is, but that's about all. But someday I'd like to say: "I use GNU/Linux ALMOST exclusively on my system. I've given up trying to achieve GNU/Linux.God status, but welcome the OS as a replacement for DOS. I only boot to DOS to play games."

GEEK EMACS CODE [E]

Yeah, I know what emacs is, and use it as my regular editor.

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 am a WebMaster. Don't even think about trying to view my homepage without the latest version of Netscape. When I'm not on my normal net connection, I surf the web using my Newton and a cellular modem."

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?]

Kibo? I don't even know what that is...

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w]

Ok, so I use MS Windows, I don't have to like it.

GEEK OS/2 CODE [O?]

OS/2? I don't even know what that is...

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M+(-)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "A Mac has it's uses and I use it quite often.", to: "Macs suck. All real geeks have a character prompt."

GEEK VMS CODE [V?]

VMS? I don't even know what that is...

GEEK POLITICS & SOCIAL ISSUES CODE [PS++]

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: "Balance the budget with spending cuts and an amendment."

GEEK CYPHERPUNKS CODE [Y(+)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I'm pretty indifferent on the whole issue.", to: "I have an interest and concern in privacy issues, but in reality I am not really all that active or vocal."

GEEK PGP CODE [PGP+()]

My tendencies on this issue range from: ""Finger me for my public key".", to: "I've used it, but stopped long ago."

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [t-()]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Maybe it is just me, but I have no idea what the big deal with Star Trek is. Perhaps I'm missing something but I just think it is bad drama.", to: "It's just another TV show."

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [5-]

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.

GEEK X FILES CODE [X]

Ho hum. Just another Fox show.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R?>+]

Role-Playing? I don't even know what that is... But someday I'd like to say: "I've got my weekly sessions set up and a character that I know better than I know myself."

I do not own a television.

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b++]

I find the time to get through at least one new book a month.

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI++]

I work with people that act a lot like Dilbert and his boss.

GEEK DOOM CODE [D?>+]

Doom? I don't even know what that is... But someday I'd like to say: "It's a fun, action game that is a nice diversion on a lazy afternoon."

THE GEEK CODE [G-]

What a tremendous waste of time this Geek Code is.

GEEK EDUCATION CODE [e++]

Got a Baccalaureate degree.

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h]
