Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GP/E/IT]

Geek of Philosophy, Geek of Engineering, Geek of Information Technology.

GEEK DRESS CODE [d]

I dress a lot like those found in catalog ads. Bland, boring, without life or meaning.

GEEK SHAPE CODE [s+:]

I'm a little taller than most.

GEEK AGE CODE [a-]

My age is 25-29.

GEEK COMPUTERS CODE [C+++$]

You mean there is life outside of Internet? You're shittin' me! I haven't dragged myself to class in weeks. Getting paid for it!

GEEK UNIX CODE [UHS++$]

I use HPUX and SunOS/Solaris. 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. 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. Getting paid for it! But someday I'd like to say: "I am Larry Wall, Tom Christiansen, or Randal Schwartz."

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. Getting paid for it! But someday I'd like to say: "I use GNU/Linux exclusively on my system. I monitor comp.os.linux.* and even answer questions sometimes."

GEEK EMACS CODE [E---]

Emacs sucks! vi forever!!!

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]

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-]

I don't know who Kibo is.

GEEK MICROSOFT WINDOWS CODE [w+]

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

GEEK OS/2 CODE [O--]

I can't even get the thing to install!

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M--]

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-]

Unix is much better than VMS for my computing needs.

GEEK POLITICS & SOCIAL ISSUES CODE [!PS]

I refuse to categorize myself on Politics & Social Issues.

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [PE+]

Balance the budget with spending cuts and an amendment.

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-]

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]

Ho hum. Just another Fox show.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R]

Role-Playing? That's just something to do to kill a Saturday afternoon.

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv++]

I just leave the tv on, to make sure I don't miss anything.

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b+]

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

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI++++]

I've received mail from Scott Adams. I'm in the DNRC (Dogbert's New Ruling Class).

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 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: "Got a Masters 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 date frequently, bouncing from one relationship to another. But someday I'd like to say: "Found someone, dated, and am now married."

GEEK SEX CODE [y+]

Male. I've had real, live sex.
