Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GCS]

Geek of Computer Science.

GEEK DRESS CODE [d-]

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

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s+:+]

I'm a little taller than most. I'm a little rounder than most.

GEEK AGE CODE [a]

My age is 30-39.

GEEK COMPUTERS CODE [C++$]

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. Getting paid for it!

GEEK UNIX CODE [UL+++$]

I use GNU/Linux exclusively. 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! Getting paid for it!

GEEK PERL CODE [P+++(--)$]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "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.", to: "Perl users are sick, twisted programmers who are just showing off." Getting paid for it!

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.

GEEK EMACS CODE [E+++]

Emacs is my login shell!! M-x doctor is my psychologist! I use emacs to control my TV and toaster oven! All you vi people don't know what you're missing! I read alt.relgion.emacs, alt.sex.emacs, and comp.os.emacs.

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." Getting paid for it!

GEEK USENET CODE [N]

Usenet News? Sure, I read that once.

GEEK USENET ORACLE CODE [o+]

I have been incarnated at least once.

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. MS Windows is a joke operating system. Hell, it's not even an operating system. NT is Not Tough enough for me either. 95 is how may times it will crash an hour. Getting paid for it!

GEEK OS/2 CODE [O?]

OS/2? I don't even know what that is...

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M?]

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

GEEK VMS CODE [V?]

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

GEEK POLITICS & SOCIAL ISSUES CODE [PS--@]

Oppose sex education, abortion rights, gay rights. Rush Limbaugh is my spokesman. But that varies...

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-]

It seems to me that all of these concerns are a little extreme. I mean, the government must be able to protect itself from criminals and the populace from indecent speech.

GEEK PGP CODE [PGP--]

I feel that the glory of the Internet is in the anarchic, trusting environment that so nurtures the exchange of information. Encryption just bogs that down.

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [t@]

It's just another TV show. But that varies...

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [5?]

Babylon 5? I don't even know what that is...

GEEK X FILES CODE [X?]

X Files? I don't even know what that is...

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R-]

Gosh, what an utter waste of time!

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv--@]

I turn my tv on during natural disasters. But that varies...

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b+++]

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

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI+@]

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

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-]

What a tremendous waste of time this Geek Code is.

GEEK EDUCATION CODE [e++]

Got a Baccalaureate degree.

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h----]

Married with children - Al Bundy can sympathize.

GEEK RELATIONSHIPS CODE [r+++]

Found someone, dated, and am now married.

GEEK SEX CODE [y?]

Male. It's none of your business what my sex life is like.
