Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GCS]

Geek of Computer Science.

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 a little taller than most. Everyone tells me to gain a few pounds.

GEEK AGE CODE [a]

My age is 30-39.

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." Getting paid for it!

GEEK UNIX CODE [UIS++$]

I use IRIX and SunOS/Solaris. 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. Getting paid for it!

GEEK PERL CODE [P+++]

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

GEEK EMACS CODE [!E]

I refuse to categorize myself on Emacs.

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]

I 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 OS/2 CODE [!O]

I refuse to categorize myself on OS/2.

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M]

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

GEEK VMS CODE [V--]

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 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.

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+]

"Finger me for my public key".

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [t]

It's just another TV show.

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [5]

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

GEEK X FILES CODE [!X-]

I refuse to categorize myself on X Files. But if I did participate in this category, I would characterize myself as follows: "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?]

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

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b++(+++)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I find the time to get through at least one new book a month.", to: "I consume a few books a week as part of a staple diet."

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI++]

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

GEEK DOOM CODE [D]

I've played the game and I'm pretty indifferent.

THE GEEK CODE [G]

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

GEEK EDUCATION CODE [e++>+++]

Got a Baccalaureate degree. 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 date periodically.

GEEK SEX CODE [y+]

Male. I've had real, live sex.
