Alegis Posted April 2, 2004 Share Posted April 2, 2004 Originally posted by GothiX I've said "lol" so many times, but that's because it's a Dutch word. I don't really consider myself a geek as well - more like an evil person that scares 6-year olds with his appearance.. I'm with stupid ^ That geek check list should be more accurate, who DIDN'T laugh at that unix hack thing in jurassic park..I saw it before i was a geek and found it hilariously stupid Anyways I think that if you spend at least 6 hours a day on the pc for own entertainment on a free day you're a geek..

Nerd_Annhilator Posted April 2, 2004 Share Posted April 2, 2004 HAH! I spend around 56 hours a week on the computer. I think I qualify. : P and the last time I saw jurassic park was when I was 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MennoniteHobbit Posted April 2, 2004 Share Posted April 2, 2004 Umm.... ~86-90 words a minute... I can read my own handwriting, I know Dvorak and QWERTY... and most of everything on Siv's list... so, does knowing a lot about computers refer to being a nerd? If it does, I'm proud to be a nerd! Except for the fact that my mom hates nerds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reborn Outcast Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Originally posted by Astrotoy7 chatting I don't think that chatting makes you a nerd. It's just a way to communicate with your friends when you can't during school. But when you spend as much time as I do online, then yes, I am a nerd.

Here is a one question test to see if you are a programmer: A car in Silicone Valley was seen with the following vanity licence plate. If you can quickly figure out the manufacturer and type of car, then you are a programmer. The plate read, "FEATURE" PM me answers and I'll let you know.

Master_Keralys Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 I'm a nerd but not a geek really. I'm not the tech support guy, but I know my way around better than almost anyone at school except the actual programmer people... meh, no big deal. The handwriting thing nearly did it, but my writing's legible - it just takes me twice as long to write anything by hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
