Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GCS]

Geek of Computer Science.

GEEK DRESS CODE [d?(--)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I have no idea what I am wearing right now, let alone what I wore yesterday.", to: "My t- shirts go a step further and have a trendy political message on them."

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s-:-]

I look up to most people. Everyone tells me to gain a few pounds.

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: "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 [UL>$]

I use GNU/Linux exclusively. I have a unix account to do my stuff in. But someday I'd like to say: "Getting paid for it!"

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 very powerful programming tool. Not only do I no longer write shell scripts, I also no longer use awk or sed. I use Perl for all programs of less than a thousand lines."

GEEK GNU/LINUX CODE [L+>++]

I've managed to get GNU/Linux installed and even used it a few times. It seems like it is just another OS. 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---]

Emacs sucks! vi forever!!!

GEEK WORLD WIDE WEB CODE [W++]

I have a homepage. I surf daily. My homepage is advertised in my .signature.

GEEK USENET CODE [N+]

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

GEEK USENET ORACLE CODE [o]

I've submitted a question, but it has never been incarnated.

GEEK KIBO CODE [K?]

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

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w(++)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Ok, so I use MS Windows, I don't have to like it.", to: "I write MS Windows programs in C and think about using C++ someday. I've written at least one DLL."

GEEK OS/2 CODE [O-]

Tried it, didn't like it.

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M]

I use a Mac, but I'm pretty indifferent about it.

GEEK VMS CODE [V-]

Unix is much better than VMS for my computing needs.

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

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: "Balance the budget with spending cuts and an amendment.", to: "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. But someday I'd like to say: "I am on the cypherpunks mailing list and active around Usenet. I never miss an opportunity to talk about the evils of Clipper and ITAR and the NSA. Orwell's 1984 is more than a story, it is a warning to our's and future generations. I'm a member of the EFF."

GEEK PGP CODE [PGP]

I've used it, but stopped long ago.

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [t]

It's just another TV show.

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [5+]

Babylon 5 certainly presents a fresh perspective in the Sci-Fi universe. I watch it weekly.

GEEK X FILES CODE [X]

Ho hum. Just another Fox show.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R]

Role-Playing? That's just something to do to kill a Saturday afternoon.

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv]

I watch only the shows that are actually worthwhile, such as those found on PBS.

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b+]

I enjoy reading, but don't get the time very often.

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI+++]

I am a Dilbert prototype.

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.

THE GEEK CODE [G++]

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 Baccalaureate degree."

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h*]

I'm not sure where I live anymore. This lab/workplace seems like home to me.

GEEK RELATIONSHIPS CODE [r*]

signifying membership in the SBCA (Sour Bachelor(ette)'s Club of America). The motto is 'Bitter, but not Desperate'. First founded at Caltech.

GEEK SEX CODE [!y+]

Sex? What's that? No experience, willing to learn!
