Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GCS/M]

Geek of Computer Science, Geek of Math.

GEEK DRESS CODE [d+]

Good leisure-wear. Slacks, button-shirt, etc. No jeans, tennis shoes, or t-shirts.

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s:]

I'm an average geek.

GEEK AGE CODE [a-(?)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "My age is 25-29.", to: "I am immortal."

GEEK COMPUTERS CODE [C+++]

You mean there is life outside of Internet? You're shittin' me! I haven't dragged myself to class in weeks.

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

I use GNU/Linux exclusively. My tendencies on this issue range from: "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.", 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--]

Perl users are sick, twisted programmers who are just showing off.

GEEK GNU/LINUX CODE [L+++]

I use GNU/Linux exclusively on my system. I monitor comp.os.linux.* and even answer questions sometimes.

GEEK EMACS CODE [E---]

Emacs sucks! vi forever!!!

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.

GEEK USENET CODE [N+++]

I read so many news groups that the next batch of news comes in before I finish reading the last batch, and I have to read for about 2 hours straight before I'm caught up on the morning's news. Then there's the afternoon...

GEEK KIBO CODE [K-]

I don't know who Kibo is.

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w---]

Windows has set back the computing industry by at least 10 years. Bill Gates should be drawn, quartered, hung, shot, poisoned, disembowelled, and then REALLY hurt.

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M-]

Macs suck. All real geeks have a character prompt.

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [PE]

Distrust both government and business.

GEEK CYPHERPUNKS CODE [Y++]

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 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+]

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

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [5]

I've seen it, I am pretty indifferent to it.

GEEK X FILES CODE [X-]

It's ok if you like paranoia and conspiracy stories, but, let's face it, it's crap.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R]

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

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv--]

I turn my tv on during natural disasters.

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b++++]

I read a book a day. I have library cards in three states. I have discount cards from every major bookstore. I've ordered books from another country to get my Favorite Author Fix.

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++++]

Managed to get my Ph.D.

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h-]

Living with one or more registered Geeks.

GEEK RELATIONSHIPS CODE [r]

I date periodically.

GEEK SEX CODE [y++]

Male. I was once referred to as 'easy'. I have no idea where that might have come from though.
