Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GCS/M/S]

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

GEEK DRESS CODE [d+(---)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "Good leisure-wear. Slacks, button-shirt, etc. No jeans, tennis shoes, or t-shirts.", to: "Punk dresser, including, but not limited to, torn jeans and shirts, body piercings, and prominent tattoos."

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s:-]

Everyone tells me to gain a few pounds.

GEEK AGE CODE [a--]

My age is 20-24.

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 [UBL++++$]

I use BSD and GNU/Linux. 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. Getting paid for it!

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++(-)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "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.", to: "I have no desire to use GNU/Linux and frankly don't give a rats patootie about it. There are other, better, operating systems out there. Like Mac, DOS, or Amiga-OS. Or, better yet even, would be another free Unix OS like FreeBSD."

GEEK EMACS CODE [E---]

Emacs sucks! vi forever!!!

GEEK WORLD WIDE WEB CODE [W++]

I have a homepage. I surf daily. My homepage is advertised in my .signature.

GEEK USENET CODE [N-]

News is a waste of my time and I avoid it completely.

GEEK USENET ORACLE CODE [!o++]

I refuse to categorize myself on Usenet Oracle. But if I did participate in this category, I would characterize myself as follows: "I have made the Best Of Oracularities."

GEEK KIBO CODE [K++]

I've read Kibo.

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: "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]

I refuse to categorize myself on Macintosh.

GEEK VMS CODE [V--]

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+(+++)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "My whole concept of liberalism is that nobody has the right to tell anybody else what to do, on either side of the political fence. If you don't like it, turn the bloody channel.", to: "Legalize drugs! Abolish the government. Fuck the draft!"

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [PE]

Distrust both government and business.

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". But someday I'd like to say: "I don't send or answer mail that is not encrypted, or at the very least signed. If you are reading this without decrypting it first, something is wrong. IT DIDN'T COME FROM ME!"

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [t+@]

It's a damn fine TV show and is one of the only things good on television any more. But that varies...

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [5]

I've seen it, I am pretty indifferent to it.

GEEK X FILES CODE [X+]

I've Converted my family and watch the show when I remember. It's really kinda fun.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R+]

I've got my weekly sessions set up and a character that I know better than I know myself.

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv--]

I turn my tv on during natural disasters.

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b++(+++)]

My tendencies on this issue range from: "I find the time to get through at least one new book a month.", to: "I consume a few books a week as part of a staple diet."

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 was once G++ (or higher), but the new versions are getting too long and too complicated.

GEEK EDUCATION CODE [e]

Finished High School.

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h]

Friends come over to visit every once in a while to talk about Geek things. There is a place for them to sit.

GEEK RELATIONSHIPS CODE [r]

GEEK SEX CODE [y+]

Male. I've had real, live sex.
