Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GM$]

Geek of Math Getting paid for it!.

GEEK DRESS CODE [d-@]

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

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s+:-]

I'm a little taller than most. Everyone tells me to gain a few pounds.

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. But someday I'd like to say: "Computers are fun and I enjoy using them. I play a mean game of DOOM! and can use a word processor without resorting to the manual too often. I know that a 3.5" disk is not a hard disk. I also know that when it says 'press any key to continue', I don't have to look for a key labeled 'ANY'."

GEEK UNIX CODE [UL+>$]

I use GNU/Linux exclusively. I not only have a unix account, but I slam VMS any chance I get. But someday I'd like to say: "Getting paid for it!"

GEEK PERL CODE [P+++]

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.

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@]

Yeah, I know what emacs is, and use it as my regular editor. But that varies...

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: "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]

Usenet News? Sure, I read that once.

GEEK USENET ORACLE CODE [o]

I've submitted a question, but it has never been incarnated.

GEEK KIBO CODE [K?]

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

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w(+)@]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Ok, so I use MS Windows, I don't have to like it.", to: "I have installed my own custom sounds, wallpaper, and screen savers so my PC walks and talks like a fun house. Oh yeah, I have a hundred TrueType(tm) fonts that I've installed but never used. I never lose Minesweeper and Solitaire" But that varies...

GEEK OS/2 CODE [O?]

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

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M+]

A Mac has it's uses and I use it quite often.

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--]

Capitalism is evil! Government should provide the services we really need. Nobody should be rich.

GEEK CYPHERPUNKS CODE [!Y]

I refuse to categorize myself on Cypherpunks.

GEEK PGP CODE [PGP-]

I don't have anything to hide.

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [t]

It's just another TV show.

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(+)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Ho hum. Just another Fox show.", to: "I've Converted my family and watch the show when I remember. It's really kinda fun."

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R-]

Gosh, what an utter waste of time!

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv-]

I watch tv for the news and 'special programming.'

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b+++]

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

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI--]

Don't read it, but I think the dog is kinda cute.

GEEK DOOM CODE [D+]

It's a fun, action game that is a nice diversion on a lazy afternoon.

THE GEEK CODE [G++]

I know what each letter means, but sometimes have to look up the specifics.

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---]

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.

Male. My tendencies on this issue range from: "I'm married, so I can get it (theoretically) whenever I want.", to: "It's none of your business what my sex life is like."
