You might be a geek if you are excitingly happy to have new eye glasses.

At this point you are probably a geek who is talking to me. Glazed eyes but nodding to indicate that I am listening.

Hell I get that glazed look reading this thread.

You might be a geek if you are contemplating buying a blu ray player simply for a certain trilogy. And you think that the newer prequels may be works of the devil.

You might be a geek...

~If you know who Robert Kirkman is~

~If you buy your ticket's to Comic Con a year in advance~

~If you know who Tricia Helfer is~

... you just preordered the Star Wars MMORPG set to go live Dec 31...

... you do fb status updates directly from the MMORPG you're playing... including screenshots as you ding.

You might be a geek if...::

Your shower curtain is the periodic table of elements.
You count by primes in your head when you're bored.
You celebrate Pi day
You know what "may the mass times acceleration be with you" means.
You own a binary clock
You routinely compile software from source.
You think about replacing annoying coworkers with UNIX shell scripts.
You own a tee-shirt that reads "Go away or I'll replace you with a small shell script"
You try to figure out the largest square root you can do in your head.
The release of a new book by Dawkins, Pinker, Leonard Susskind, or Steven Weinberg is cause for excitement.

Cheers
Aj

You might be a geek if you read a previous post in the thread and immediately thought "Duh, it's 10 types of people, not 11. 11 in binary is 3, not 2."

Second season of The Walking Dead starts

Oh yeah!

SecretAgentMa'am · 09-26-2011, 08:30 PM

You might be a geek if you get irrationally upset about a movie called "The Ides of March" being released in October, and not on the actual Ides of March.

Starbuck · 09-26-2011, 08:38 PM

You might be a geek if you still play video games once in a while

dreadgeek · 09-26-2011, 09:04 PM

The minute you heard that NASA had made ringtones of various sounds from their archives you went here http://www.nasa.gov/connect/sounds/index.html and downloaded them all.
