Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GCS/IT/AT/P/O]

Geek of Computer Science, Geek of Information Technology, Geek of All Trades, Geek of Philosophy, Geek of Other.

GEEK EDUCATION CODE [e++(*)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Got a Baccalaureate degree.", to: "I learned everything there is to know about life from the "Hitchhiker's Trilogy"."

GEEK DRESS CODE [d-(!)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I'm usually in jeans and a t-shirt.", to: "No clothing. Quite a fashion statement, don't you think?"

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s+:]

I'm a little taller than most.

GEEK AGE CODE [a-]

My age is 25-29.

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 RELATIONSHIPS CODE [r+++]

Found someone, dated, and am now married.

GEEK UNIX CODE [UL+(++)]

I use GNU/Linux exclusively. My tendencies on this issue range from: "I not only have a unix account, but I slam VMS any chance I get.", to: "I've get the entire admin ticked off at me because I am always using all of the CPU time and trying to run programs that I don't have access to. I'm going to try cracking /etc/passwd next week, just don't tell anyone."

GEEK UNIX CODE [UB(+)]

I use BSD exclusively. My tendencies on this issue range from: "I have a unix account to do my stuff in.", to: "I not only have a unix account, but I slam VMS any chance I get."

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---(-)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Emacs sucks! vi forever!!!", to: "Emacs is too big and bloated for my tastes"

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'm still trying to install MS Windows and have at least one peripheral that never works right"

GEEK OS/2 CODE [O]

I finally managed to get OS/2 installed but wasn't too terribly impressed.

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M@]

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

GEEK VMS CODE [V-(--)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Unix is much better than VMS for my computing needs.", to: "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 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: "The web is really a pain. Life was so much easier when you could transfer information by simple ASCII. Now everyone won't even consider your ideas unless you spiff them up with bandwidth-consuming pictures and pointless information links."

GEEK PERL CODE [P-]

What's Perl got that awk and sed don't have?

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b+++]

I consume a few books a week as part of a staple diet.

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv]

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

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R@]

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

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI+@]

I read Dilbert daily, often understanding it. But that varies...

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 that varies...

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."

THE GEEK CODE [G]

I know what the geek code is and even did up this code.

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 STAR TREK CODE [t-]

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.
