geekyness

[markman]

I have been wondering this for a long time now:
1) How often do you program?
2) Do you consider yourself a geek or nerd?
3) Do others consider you a geek or nerd?

[SteveCRM]

1. any free tme on the computer
2. yes
3. yes

[marnitzg]

1. Often enough
2. No
3. No

All the time
yes
yes, but they're also scared of me because my buldging muscles *Dennis flexes muscles*

[barrk]

Is that your bulging muscle or are you just happy to see me??

[Fox]

(*g*)

0) Whenever possible (That's why I've got a notebook )
1) Yes
2) Dunno

Exactly

[chrisjk]

1) Every day pretty much - for example today I did a app that controls other computers remotely (shut them down etc)
2) Hell no
3) My Fonz-esque mojo is, thankfully, recognised by others

[Jamagei]

1) every day for about 8 hours (well, 2 if you count coffee breaks internet trips, general conversation, playing network games)
2) Nope, well, sometimes
3) Geek Boy-Racer apparently

[parksie]

1: Every day for about 2hrs
2: Not really, more a psychotic whacked-out crazy
3: Slightly

1. I do amazingly little coding for myself, but I learn a lot
2. Probably, yeah I guess so, but not in a bad way
3. I've been accused of being a cool kind of geek, in general I'm 'the programmer guy'


It's the geek boy-racer! Next car upgrade after the extended wheel arches with fat tyres and the huuuuge exhaust will be an mp3 server in the boot connected up via a wireless LAN I expect

[chrisjk]

Don't forget that new stereo system from Kenwood that lets you program as you drive. Simply speak VB to it...

Or not

Yet another one of my fantasies slips out...

[crptcblade]

1. About 3-4 hours a day, everyday (like exercising)
2. No
3. Yes, up until the point that I killed them

[Cbomb]

1) Whenever possible
2) Yes, I prefer geek
3) ...People?...What's a people?

[Fox]

undefined object(people); *hehe*

[Pix]

1. Quite a bit
2. Nope I'm just mental
3. Nope they either think I'm mental, a bit scary or a freak

Yeah don't forget the blacked out windows and the Huuuge spoiler (an RS one) and the 5 spoke alloys and the Blue Neon lights under the front seats (they are coo!)

[smh]

1) 8 hours a day - It's my job
2) Only at work....I change personalities when I walk out the door to go home every night.
3) Only my fiance....I don't even mention computers to anyone else except for him after I leave work.

1 - Entirely too often at work in VB and not often enough at home (never) in Perl and Java.

2 - I am a geek. I once dated a geek. She was smarter than me. Man, those were happy times. My finacee is a science teacher, and teaches other teachers how to incorporate computers into the classroom. She thinks she knows computers well enough to not be bothered by me, so I keep my mouth shut. I am a geek in hiding.

3 - No, they probably consider me a yuppie with poor tastes. Though I have good fashion sense, I wear my shoes until I have holes in them like a good lazy geek. I drive an Impreza (not a good yuppie car) because it is a good tech sports car, like a Talon or an MR-2 or a Fiero. Geeks don't go for big muscle cars because we don't usually bother measuring our dicks. Besides, a Mustang is too slow.

1. Approx 12 hours per day.

2. No......play rugby and do karate as well

3. ???????????????????

katie

You gave me this real horrid image of Dennis........there is probably a Buffy saying that could be dropped in here.

[alex_read]

1) How often do you program?
as often as possible for practice.

2) Do you consider yourself a geek or nerd?
Use to

3) Do others consider you a geek or nerd?
Nope

yes, but they're also scared of me because my buldging muscles

1) Program?! whats that?

2) I'm the life and soul of the party! (nerd indeed)

3) I don't have any friends to talk to about it
