Decoded Geek Code

GEEK TYPE CODE [GCS/IT/B/O/]
Geek of Computer Science, Geek of Information Technology, Geek of 
Business, Geek of Other.

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 a little taller than most. I'm a linebacker candidate.

GEEK AGE CODE [a-]
My age is 25-29.

GEEK COMPUTERS CODE [C++++]
I'll be first in line to get the new cybernetic interface installed into 
my skull.

GEEK UNIX CODE [UL++]
I use GNU/Linux exclusively. 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.

GEEK PERL CODE [P+]
I know of perl. I like perl. I just haven't learned much perl, but it is 
on my agenda.

GEEK GNU/LINUX CODE [L(+++)]
My tendencies on this issue range from: "I know what GNU/Linux is, but 
that's about all.", to: "I use GNU/Linux exclusively on my system. I 
monitor comp.os.linux.* and even answer questions sometimes."

GEEK EMACS CODE [!E-]
I refuse to categorize myself on Emacs. But if I did participate in this 
category, I would characterize myself as follows: "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--]
Who needs answers from a bunch of geeks anyhow?

GEEK KIBO CODE [!K----]
I refuse to categorize myself on Kibo. But if I did participate in this 
category, I would characterize myself as follows: "I am Xibo."

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 Windows, Windows 95, Windows NT, and 
Windows NT Advanced Server all running on my SMP RISC machine. I haven't 
seen daylight in six months."

GEEK OS/2 CODE [!O-]
I refuse to categorize myself on OS/2. But if I did participate in this 
category, I would characterize myself as follows: "Tried it, didn't like 
it."

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M]
I use a Mac, but I'm pretty indifferent about it.

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 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.

GEEK POLITICS & ECONOMIC ISSUES CODE [PE++]
Keep the government off the backs of businesses. Deregulate as much as 
possible.

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+]
"Finger me for my public key".

GEEK STAR TREK CODE [!t---]
I refuse to categorize myself on Star Trek. But if I did participate in 
this category, I would characterize myself as follows: "Star Trek SUCKS! 
It is the worst crap I have ever seen! Hey, all you trekkies out there, 
GET A LIFE! (William Shatner is a t---)."

GEEK BABYLON 5 CODE [5--]
You call this Sci-Fi? That is such a load of crap! This show is just a 
soap with bad actors, piss-poor effects, and lame storylines. Puh-leese.

GEEK X FILES CODE [X]
Ho hum. Just another Fox show.

GEEK ROLE-PLAYING CODE [R*]
I thought life WAS role-playing?

GEEK TELEVISION CODE [tv-]
I watch tv for the news and 'special programming.'

GEEK BOOKS CODE [b++]
I find the time to get through at least one new book a month.

GEEK DILBERT CODE [DI++]
I work with people that act a lot like Dilbert and his boss.

GEEK DOOM CODE [D+]
It's a fun, action game that is a nice diversion on a lazy afternoon.

THE GEEK CODE [G--]
Not only a waste of time, but it obviously shows that this Hayden guy 
needs a life.

GEEK EDUCATION CODE [e+++(e*)]
My tendencies on this issue range from: "Got a Masters degree.", to: ""

GEEK HOUSING CODE [h+]
Living alone, get out once a week to buy food, no more than once a month 
to do laundry. All surfaces covered.
