Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GCS/IT]

Geek of Computer Science, Geek of Information Technology.

GEEK DRESS CODE [d-@]

I'm usually in jeans and a t-shirt. But that varies...

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s:(+)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I'm an average geek.", to: "I'm a little rounder than most."

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: "You mean there is life outside of Internet? You're shittin' me! I haven't dragged myself to class in weeks." But someday I'd like to say: "Getting paid for it!"

GEEK UNIX CODE [UL+++(++++)]

I use GNU/Linux exclusively. My tendencies on this issue range from: "I don't need to crack /etc/passwd because I just modified su so that it doesn't prompt me. The admin staff doesn't even know I'm here. If you don't understand what I just said, this category does NOT apply to you!", to: "I am the sysadmin. If you try and crack my machine don't be surprised if the municipal works department gets an "accidental" computer-generated order to start a new landfill on your front lawn or your quota is reduced to 4K."

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 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. But that varies...

GEEK EMACS CODE [!E-]

I refuse to categorize myself on Emacs. But if I did participate in this category, I would characterize myself as follows: "Emacs is too big and bloated for my tastes"

GEEK WORLD WIDE WEB CODE [W+++$]

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. Getting paid for it!

GEEK USENET CODE [N+]

I read news recreationally when I have some time to kill.

GEEK USENET ORACLE CODE [!o]

I refuse to categorize myself on Usenet Oracle.

GEEK KIBO CODE [K]

I know who Kibo is.

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w++(+++)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I write MS Windows programs in C and think about using C++ someday. I've written at least one DLL.", to: "I am a MS Windows programming god. I wrote a VxD driver to allow MS Windows and DOS to share the use of my waffle iron. P.S. Unix sux."

GEEK OS/2 CODE [!O]

I refuse to categorize myself on OS/2.

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M+]

A Mac has it's uses and I use it quite often.

GEEK VMS CODE [!V]

I refuse to categorize myself on VMS.

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

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I give to liberal causes. I march for gay rights. I'm a card carrying member of the ACLU. Keep abortion safe and legal.", to: "Legalize drugs! Abolish the government. Fuck the draft!"

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [PE-]

It's ok to increase government spending, so we can help more poor people. Tax the rich! Cut the defense budget!

GEEK CYPHERPUNKS CODE [Y+]

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++]

I have the most recent version and use it regularly.

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [t+@]

It's a damn fine TV show and is one of the only things good on television any more. But that varies...

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [!5]

I refuse to categorize myself on Babylon 5.

GEEK X FILES CODE [X++]

This is one of the better shows I've seen. I wish I'd taped everything from the start at SP, because I'm wearing out my EP tapes. I'll periodically debate online. I've Converted at least 5 people. I've gotten a YAXA.

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: "I've got my weekly sessions set up and a character that I know better than I know myself."

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv-]

I watch tv for the news and 'special programming.'

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b++]

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

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI+++]

I am a Dilbert prototype.

GEEK DOOM CODE [!D+]

I refuse to categorize myself on Doom. But if I did participate in this category, I would characterize myself as follows: "It's a fun, action game that is a nice diversion on a lazy afternoon."

THE GEEK CODE [G+>++]

I was once G++ (or higher), but the new versions are getting too long and too complicated. But someday I'd like to say: "I know what each letter means, but sometimes have to look up the specifics."

GEEK EDUCATION CODE [e>+++]

Finished High School. But someday I'd like to say: "Got a Masters degree."

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h]

Friends come over to visit every once in a while to talk about Geek things. There is a place for them to sit.

GEEK RELATIONSHIPS CODE [r++]

I've dated my current S.O. for a long time.

GEEK SEX CODE [y+**]

Male. I've had real, live sex. I've been known to make perverts look like angels.
