When did you realize you're a geek?

Maybe I'm a dumbass, or the furthest thing from a geek, cause I still don't get it.....

Lets say you have a program that if you hit the "R" and the "G" at the same time, it formats your harddrive. This is obviously a bug. However if you document the bug and call it a self destruct sequence, it is no longer a bug, it's a feature.

ROFL!! That's awesome!! And then somebody put it on their license tag on their VW Beetle! That's hilarious! LOL

Perhaps I am not geeky enough to be here.
I will try harder.

Live long and prosper.:D

The saying it's mocking is "It's not a bug, it's a feature".

So on a volkswagen BUG, they have a license plate saying FEATURE.

But you're right, if it's come to this much explanation, you're safe.

I get it; it's a computer thing.......... Right?

Yep, I'm still lost. I think I'm going out tonight to celebrate my non-geekness.

I didn't get it until it was explained but even then, I still didn't laugh. Guess I'm somewhat safe...

The people who got the joke right away = geeks.

Those who didn't = nerds.

**** got the joke right away. Didn't surprise my wife she been calling me that for years.

In my best Stooges voice... "Hey I resemble that remark."

This is an old one, but it is also a good test:

There are 10 types of people on this planet; those that understand binary, and those that don't.

I only "felt" like a geek when I got excited about the printout from caffine samples using HPLC during my college Instrumental Chem class. I almost miss those times.

Does making a crystal radio from a plank, rock,wire, toilet paper tube and salvaged tuning resistor back in 1962 count as a nerd. What is a do loop anyway?

TheReaper · July 2005

computer = geek
a/v = nerd

audiobliss · July 2005

But I'm just into audio! So I'm just cool!!!

It's something that executes code until (hopefully) the set condition comes true

beardog03 · July 2005

apperently I`m a little of both...

does that make me a DEEK..?!!

N1: GEEK
N2: PRINT,N1
N3: GOTO,N2

Would this get a syntax error? Or would it print GEEK forever?

TheReaper · July 2005

n1: n$ = "geek"
n2: PRINT , n$
n3: GOTO n2

Ever since I could read HEX in my sleep.

3FFF store FF return null..........

Well that's what the 15 bit high is.

POLK SDA The people who got the joke right away = geeks.

Those who didn't = nerds. What is the difference, between the two? Aloha, Warren

void process_party(const u_char *packet_ptr)

	int i = 0;
	for (i = 22; i < 23; i++)

Hi POLK SDA, Well, I guess I know what I am. Aloha Warren
