You know you're a geek when........

[darth_vector]

you find the following funny:

NT is the path to the dark side.
NT leads to Bluescreen.
Bluescreen leads to downtime.
Downtime leads to suffering.
I sence much NT in you.
Powerful Unix is.

...and you know who was supposed to have said it

...someone asks you about something computer related and you know answering them would take more time than their patience would allow so you decide not to.

...you get depressed at the management of relatives' / public systems.

...you do tech support calls for the whole neighborhood.

You know you're a burnt out geek when...
...you used to do all of these things and then finally got so tired from it that you decided everyone can take care of their own computers. You used the fact that you switched to Linux as an excuse. "Well, I don't actually use Windows so I'm not sure what the precise problem is. I would have to actually learn your system first and then try to figure out the problem."

You know you're a geek when..

You have used words like "lol", "leet" and "omg" in daily speech
You miss the F1 button under math classes
You say lol instead of laughing.. or you write , in essays at school
You try yo get into the BIOS of your car
You scream "Just ****ing google it" when somebody asks a simple question in the class
You accuse everybody running faster than your self of using speed hack
You've got The Flu and are trying to do a virus check
Somebody asks you about your address, you give them: 192.12.0.140
You are seriously considering asking your doctor how much you can overclock your brain
At Macdonalds, you're ordering a 160MB hamburger
You wish you've ordered your house through Microsoft, it would be so easy to just take the backdoor in..
