Fill in the blank. You might be a geek if... When you see the name Starbuck you think of Battlestar Galactica not a misspelling of a coffee chain. |
... you still try to discuss Lost.
|
Many years ago I was on the Engineering Computing softball team.
Our name: Base 2 ...I still giggle thinking about it. |
All your base are belong to us...
You may be a geek if this phrase has ever been a part of your everyday vocabulary :p |
You know the difference between a D4 and a D20 :) aren't ashamed to take yours out of the bag and show them off :blink:
|
... you know everyone at the Genius Bar by name.
(Mac users only. wait, though. if you use a Mac, then you can't be a....) |

You understand the phrase
There are only 11 kinds of people in the world, those that know binary and those that do not. You own a Tshirt that says: I void warranties! or one that says No, I wont fix your computer ...and you wear it to family holiday celebrations..but you end up fixing them anyway. |

ok these are the only ones that apply to me i contend they indicate nerdiness rather than geekiness you might be a geek if you can explain the difference between the two! |
....you can't drive/hike by roadkill or fecal matter without identifying the genus and species.
A corollary to that would be "...you ever put roadkill in your backpack because the skull was intact." Funny, I never got asked out on a second date after that one. Curious. Alright, that puts me in the biology nerd category, not geek, but I wanted to play. I got picked last at dodgeball too. :glasses: |

You might be a geek if you ever wanted to work on a Firefly class ship with Captain Malcolm Reynolds. If you ever used the word indeed and thought of Teal'C from SG1. If you have ever used the word frack in the place of fuck. |
You might be a geek if
. . . the summer you took both Calculus III and Differential Equations was one of your favorite school experiences.

I thanked this post because I wanted everybody to think I understood it. I am out of the geek running. |
What's the distinction between a geek and a nerd. Are there different sorts of geeks and nerds?

...you stand in line for 2 days to get the lastest and greatest I-Phone. You might be a geek if.... ...you can recognize the different windows versions by the sound of it shutting down. You might be a geek if.... ...you know what Comic-Con is. You might be a geek if.... ...you speak to your friends more often online than face to face. You might be a geek if.... ...instead of saying awesome or cool you say 'shiney'. You might be a geek if.... ...you know what a 'reaver' is and it gives you nightmares. |
You might be a geek if you have a countdown until Dr. Who kills Hitler.
you have arguements over who the best doctor is as well as the greatest companion you secretly look at phonebooths and wonder if they can travel in time and space |

omg I want to go to comic-con one of these days. *shivers* Let's not talk about reavers. |
if you now have a fear of turning your back on religious statuary

if you were wicked bummed when you had to admit that Tron wasn't what REALLY happens inside computers...
|
You have spent an evening "stalking" your favorite actor at a convention and didn't get arrested.
You attended a discussion panel on the creation of a fantasy language used in film. You have more photos in albums of people you don't know dressed in cosplay than you have of family and friends... |
