Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GE]

Geek of Engineering.

GEEK DRESS CODE [d->++]

I'm usually in jeans and a t-shirt. But someday I'd like to say: "I tend to wear conservative dress such as a business suit or worse, a tie."

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s-:]

I look up to most people.

GEEK AGE CODE [a-]

My age is 25-29.

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++B]

I use GNU/Linux and BSD. 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 PERL CODE [P++]

Perl is a powerful programming tool. I don't write shell scripts anymore because I write them in Perl.

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 is great! I read my mail and news with it!

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 all the news in a select handful of groups.

GEEK USENET ORACLE CODE [o?]

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

GEEK KIBO CODE [K?]

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

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w>---]

Ok, so I use MS Windows, I don't have to like it. But someday I'd like to say: "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-]

Tried it, didn't like it.

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [!M--]

I refuse to categorize myself on Macintosh. But if I did participate in this category, I would characterize myself as follows: "Macs do more than suck. They make a user stupid by allowing them to use the system without knowing what they are doing. Mac weenies have lower IQs than the fuzz in my navel."

GEEK VMS CODE [!V--]

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

I really don't have an opinion; nobody's messing with my freedoms right now.

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [PE++]

Keep the government off the backs of businesses. Deregulate as much as possible.

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

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [!5]

I refuse to categorize myself on Babylon 5.

GEEK X FILES CODE [X]

Ho hum. Just another Fox show.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [!R]

I refuse to categorize myself on Role-Playing.

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv+]

I watch some tv every day.

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b+]

I enjoy reading, but don't get the time very often.

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI+]

I read Dilbert daily, often understanding it.

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 the geek code is and even did up this code.

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

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Got a Baccalaureate degree.", to: "Got a Masters degree." But someday I'd like to say: "Managed to get my Ph.D."

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h-]

Living with one or more registered Geeks.

GEEK RELATIONSHIPS CODE [!r]

I've never had a relationship.

GEEK SEX CODE [y?]

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