Revenge? That comic is funny, Linux is an open community and that means open minded, we need to be able to laugh at ourselves and criticizes ourselves to do better.

That one about breast enlargement...genius!

And, I resent the cartoon making it seem like all Linux users are still just basement geeks living with their mothers, and never having any social contact with girls.

Although, come to think of it...I do live a pretty monastic / hermitic life-style. And, the last time I had a girlfriend was in October...two years ago. Holy crap, I'm a Linux dork! Oh, no...no, wait...I don't live with my mother, and I don't live in the basement.

Ok, we need to setup the "dork test" or something... Some kind of scaled test folks can take to test their dork'ness.

For instance...

1) we'd obviously ask questions about Sci Fi trivia knowledge (the more you have, the higher your dork-o-meter score). Everyone's seen Star Trek, so that doesn't necessarily make you a dork. But, if you've attended a convention (or if you go out of your way to fly/drive to one out of your city...wow...dork!)

2) Role-playing games...yup. (Played D&D? Who hasn't? Getting dragged to a weekend game of D&D by your significant other doesn't mean your a dork. Played LARP? Ok, you're probably a dork. If you know what LARP stands for, and have the rules memorized for a certain LARP game...yeah, you're definitely a dork!)

3) Life on your own? By choice? No...seriously! Yeah...dork.

4) Like computers & gadgets? So much that you've given up on dating so that you can spend more time with them? Yeah...dork. ("But, man, computers are so much more cool. They don't complain, they usually do what you want, and when you're done with them, you just turn them off.")

5) Got friends? No, seriously, the chia pet and your cat don't count. Any of the opposite sex (or of the same sex if you swing that way)? That's probably make you less of a dork. Unless...would you say your friends are just as dorky as you? This would imply that you're not in self-denial about your dorkiness, which a lot of dorks are.

6) In college, at the dorms...were you in the room with the other guys/girls having lots of hot, drunken group sex? Or, were you the person in the room with the other guys/girls complaining about the ones in the room next to you having lots of hot, drunken group sex which was disturbing your a) RPG session, b) computer programming/rewiring, c) (if you have something really disturbing you were doing, then you qualify as a freak, not a dork)

7) Still live with your parents? In the basement? Over the age of 30? Single? Dateless? Desperate? Or, even more dorkier, it's been so long since you've dated, you can't remember when you last did. And, even dorkier...you don't mind!

8) Where you work...do you complain about that one guy who smells funny, wears dress clothes but still looks like a slob, talks WAY too much about something he plays on his computer called WOW, and always seems to have a shoe untied? Or...are you that person that everyone else is whispering about?

9) Do people of the opposite sex (or same if you swing that way) cringe when you come near? Your especially a dork if you're reasonably good looking (or perhaps even "hawt" looking), and they still cringe when you come near. Perhaps because you berate them at their lack of computer knowledge, or because you simply have some anti-social quirk (like constantly rubbing your runny nose) that drives people away.

10) Can you perform all of your favourite hobbies/past-times on the computer (or some other similar device, EG: game console). Yes? Dork!

11) Do you order food off the internet? So much so, that you can't remember the last time you needed to go to the grocery store? Dork!

12) The all important personal question...how's your love-life? Is the girl/guy you're seeing steadily only visible via web-cam, or anime pay-site? Does s/he require an air-pump or batteries? Has anyone ever seen you in public with them? By choice?

Wow, I need to stop while I think I still rank fairly low on the scale (even though I'm ranking somewhere in the middle there...hehe, can't think up questions for a dork quiz if you're not at least half dork!)

dorks and not geek and not nerds.

My wife is a nerd, I am a geek. just because we are doesn't mean we are hopeless socialites. I once said hi to the postman after all.

I'm also a programmer with heavy computer usage who got dragged into playinbg D&D by the wife.
