Love these tests for boring nights
35.99% geek

(years ago, found out yesterday all my hard labour is gone due to not refreshing the bateries
)
Fact: 25.44% of people who took this test believe in The Force.

You are 70% geeky.
Not bad. Maybe you spend a little too much time with your computer, but at least you have friends. You do have friends, right?

OK, not that geeky at all, are you? I'll bet you even have a girlfriend (or boyfriend).

But.....Pauls is even better:-
82.5% (
) (bet you're jealous now girls
)
You're the ultimate geek. I'd write that in Klingon, but you'd probably correct my grammar. Get a girlfriend. (

The current average score is: 35.99%
Fact: 25.43% of people who took this test believe in The Force. (He said yes to that one too! Well, he had to as he was registered as a Jedi on the last census
I think that I scored lower as I have no idea about computer stuff (and he does!)
Thanks
D - that gave both of us a good laugh

Writing in Klingon
And then there was me thinking that was just a strange looking fellow
Glad I'm not geekest among those who took the test yet

Yep - looks like I could be married to the geekiest
Still, I take true comfort in that article
I think that we may very well have a Klingon dictionary somewhere (he bought it at the request of one of the kids he was teaching at the time - honest
I'm sure he doesn't actually speak it).......
.........he says only enough to order a coffee and a batleth (
)
Honestly - he's an excellent provider and treats me
really well
(.......and he likes tsom
)

I should also add that I've been
here all day listening to Jeffrey Zeldman, Joe Clark, Andy Budd etc
And my second computer runs Fedora Core 3.

Delilah sent me a text from Norway today, which I managed to open
and respond to.
Ok, no, that doesn't make me a geek.
Unless you're over a certain age. Then it does.
You krazee kids and your whot-not, blackberry, blueberry pies type thing.

You are 62.5% geeky.

That's appalling. I should 50% for running gentoo [and liking it] and an extra 5% for every programming language that I can use

Not sure if this was aimed at me Libby.
If not, hey it's more exposure.
Having read your post in size 12, I think you're both completely barking mad. In a mad, cool way, with 'stuff'.
Most of which seems to be wooden or metal. And sharp.

20% geeky. But I've booked tickets to see War of the Worlds already. So does that count for anything?

...probably because I'm seriously impaired when it comes to math.
Imagine if I weren't - how geeky I'd be then!!!
Boggles the mind, truly.

Ooooh. 45%.
You just beat me.
Or I just beat you, depending on how you look at it...

Ok - so it would appear that I am living with the geekiest of the geeks
@Obviousman - no, didn't get him the coffee - he was on Stella by that time of night
(not very Klingon - should have been blood wine shouldn't it
) (and he already has a batleth ......no.....really.....he does
bought at Tynemouth market, from a very nice woman who also had a large stock of Lord of the Rings swords
)
*note to self* - stop typing because now they
know how geeky we are

Stupid question of the night:
What on earth (or in outer space) is a batleth
Meanwhile: They're giving away free ben & jerry's right in front of my door, run y'all!

Sorry - probably not spelt correctly (maybe I should have looked it up in the Klingon dictionary
) - its the large double handed weapon the Klingons use
this is getting more and more geeky
(honestly - neither of us are as nerdy as I am making us sound - honest
)
