Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GS]

Geek of Science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology, etc.).

GEEK DRESS CODE [d?]

I have no idea what I am wearing right now, let alone what I wore yesterday.

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s-:--]

I look up to most people. I tend to have to fight against a strong breeze.

GEEK AGE CODE [a?]

I am immortal.

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.

GEEK UNIX CODE [UBALIS++++]

I use BSD, AIX, GNU/Linux, IRIX and SunOS/Solaris. 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 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 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 sucks! vi forever!!!

GEEK WORLD WIDE WEB CODE [W--]

A pox on the Web! It wastes time and bandwidth and just gives the uneducated morons a reason to clutter the Internet.

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w--]

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.

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M++(-)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I am a Mac guru. Anything those DOS putzes and unix nerds can do, I can do better, and if not, I'll write the damn software to do it.", to: "Macs suck. All real geeks have a character prompt."

GEEK POLITICS & SOCIAL ISSUES CODE [PS++]

I give to liberal causes. I march for gay rights. I'm a card carrying member of the ACLU. Keep abortion safe and legal.

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [PE+]

Balance the budget with spending cuts and an amendment.

GEEK CYPHERPUNKS CODE [Y++]

I am on the cypherpunks mailing list and active around Usenet. I never miss an opportunity to talk about the evils of Clipper and ITAR and the NSA. Orwell's 1984 is more than a story, it is a warning to our's and future generations. I'm a member of the EFF.

GEEK PGP CODE [PGP]

I've used it, but stopped long ago.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R+*]

I've got my weekly sessions set up and a character that I know better than I know myself. I thought life WAS role-playing?

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv@]

I watch only the shows that are actually worthwhile, such as those found on PBS. But that varies...

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b++++]

I read a book a day. I have library cards in three states. I have discount cards from every major bookstore. I've ordered books from another country to get my Favorite Author Fix.

GEEK DOOM CODE [D---]

To hell with Doom, I miss Zork.

GEEK EDUCATION CODE [e++]

Got a Baccalaureate degree.

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h*]

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 [x*]

Female. I'm a pervert.
