Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GE]

Geek of Engineering.

GEEK DRESS CODE [d]

I dress a lot like those found in catalog ads. Bland, boring, without life or meaning.

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 40-49.

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 [U+++]

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!

GEEK PERL CODE [P++++$]

I don't write Perl, I speak it. Perl has superseded all other programming languages. I firmly believe that all programs can be reduced to a Perl one-liner. I use Perl to achieve U+++ status. Getting paid for it!

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.

GEEK EMACS CODE [E++]

I know and use elisp regularly!

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 news recreationally when I have some time to kill.

GEEK USENET ORACLE CODE [o?]

Usenet Oracle? I don't even know what that is...

GEEK KIBO CODE [K-]

I don't know who Kibo is.

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w--(+++)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "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.", to: "I am a MS Windows programming god. I wrote a VxD driver to allow MS Windows and DOS to share the use of my waffle iron. P.S. Unix sux."

GEEK OS/2 CODE [O-]

Tried it, didn't like it.

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M-]

Macs suck. All real geeks have a character prompt.

GEEK VMS CODE [V-]

Unix is much better than VMS for my computing needs.

GEEK POLITICS & SOCIAL ISSUES CODE [!PS]

I refuse to categorize myself on Politics & Social Issues.

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [!PE]

I refuse to categorize myself on Politics & Economic Issues.

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]

I've used it, but stopped long ago.

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-]

This show is sub-par. The acting is wooden, the special effects are obviously poor quality. In general, it seems like a very cheap Star Trek ripoff.

GEEK X FILES CODE [X]

Ho hum. Just another Fox show.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R-]

Gosh, what an utter waste of time!

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv+()@]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I watch some tv every day.", to: "I watch only the shows that are actually worthwhile, such as those found on PBS." 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 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 an Associate degree.

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h---]

Married, (persons living romantically with someone might as well label themselves h---, you're as good as there already.)

GEEK RELATIONSHIPS CODE [r+++]

Found someone, dated, and am now married.

GEEK SEX CODE [y++++]

Male. I have a few little rug rats to prove I've been there. Besides, with kids around, who has time for sex?
