This is what your Geek Code spells (bookmarkable link):

Type of Geek [GM/S/ED]

Geek of Math.

Geek of Science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology, etc.).

Geek of Education.

Appearance

Dress [d?]

I have no idea what I am wearing right now, let alone what I wore yesterday.

Shape

Nothing known.

Age [a?]

Immortal.

Computers

Computers [C+]

Computers are fun and I enjoy using them. I play a mean game of DOOM! and can use a word processor without resorting to the manual too often. I know that a 3.5" disk is not a hard disk. I also know that when it says 'press any key to continue', I don't have to look for a key labeled 'ANY'.

UNIX [UL]

I have a Unix account to do my stuff in. I use Linux.

Perl [P+]

I know of Perl. I like Perl. I just haven't learned much Perl, but it is on my agenda.

Linux [L++]

I use Linux ALMOST exclusively on my system. I've given up trying to achieve Linux.God status, but welcome the OS as a replacement for DOS. I only boot to DOS to play games.

Emacs [E--]

Emacs is just a fancy word processor.

World-Wide Web [W++]

I have a homepage. I surf daily. My homepage is advertised in my .signature.

USENET News

Nothing known.

USENET Oracle

Nothing known.

Kibo

Nothing known.

Microsoft Windows [w---]

Windows has set back the computing industry by at least 10 years. Bill Gates should be drawn, quartered, hung, shot, poisoned, disembowelled, and then REALLY hurt.

OS/2

Nothing known.

Macintosh [M-]

Macs suck. All real geeks have a character prompt.

VMS

Nothing known.

Politics

Political and Social Issues [PS+++]

Legalize drugs! Abolish the government. `Fuck the draft!'.

Politics and Economic Issues [PE]

Distrust both government and business.

I have an interest and concern in privacy issues, but in reality I am not really all that active or vocal.

PGP [PGP++]

I have the most recent version and use it regularly.

Entertainment

Star Trek

Nothing known.

Babylon 5

Nothing known.

X-Files

Nothing known.

Role Playing [R]

Role-Playing? That's just something to do to kill a Saturday afternoon.

I do not own a television.

Books [b+]

I enjoy reading, but don't get the time very often.

Dilbert

Nothing known.

DOOM!

Nothing known.

The Geek Code [G-]

What a tremendous waste of time this Geek Code is.

Lifestyle

Education [e+++]

Got a Masters degree.

Housing [h*]

I'm not sure where I live anymore. This lab/workplace seems like home to me.

Relationships

Nothing known.

Sex [z?]

Gender undisclosed. It's none of your business what my sex life is like.


The Code of the Geeks is a simple and compact way how to tell the others about your geeky personality. The Geek Code consists of a series of letters, numbers and symbols, each describing you in some category. Sometimes, it's a little cryptic to the uninitiated, and here comes our little tool to help you.
