Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GIT/M/MU/P/S]

Geek of Information Technology, Geek of Math, Geek of Music, Geek of Philosophy, Geek of Science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology, etc.).

GEEK DRESS CODE [d-(++)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I'm usually in jeans and a t-shirt.", to: "I tend to wear conservative dress such as a business suit or worse, a tie."

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s:]

I'm an average geek.

GEEK AGE CODE [a--]

My age is 20-24.

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: "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. 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. But someday I'd like to say: "I am a GNU/Linux wizard. I munch C code for breakfast and have enough room left over for a kernel debugging. I have so many patches installed that I lost track about ten versions ago. GNU/Linux newbies consider me a net.god."

GEEK EMACS CODE [E-]

Emacs is too big and bloated for my tastes

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---]

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-]

Macs suck. All real geeks have a character prompt.

GEEK VMS CODE [V?]

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

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'm pretty indifferent on the whole issue.

GEEK PGP CODE [PGP-]

I don't have anything to hide.

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]

Ho hum. Just another Fox show.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R-]

Gosh, what an utter waste of time!

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv+]

I watch some tv every day.

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b++>+++]

I find the time to get through at least one new book a month. But someday I'd like to say: "I consume a few books a week as part of a staple diet."

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI]

I read Dilbert infrequently, rarely understanding it.

GEEK DOOM CODE [D(+)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I've played the game and I'm pretty indifferent.", to: "It's a fun, action game that is a nice diversion on a lazy afternoon."

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: "Managed to get my Ph.D."

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h+(*)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Living alone, get out once a week to buy food, no more than once a month to do laundry. All surfaces covered.", to: "I'm not sure where I live anymore. This lab/workplace seems like home to me."

GEEK RELATIONSHIPS CODE [r++]

I've dated my current S.O. for a long time.

GEEK SEX CODE [y->++++]

Male. Not having sex by choice. But someday I'd like to say: "I have a few little rug rats to prove I've been there. Besides, with kids around, who has time for sex?"
