By the way... it makes my day to see that that test asks if you own an SGI server

http://www.idlethumbs.net/screenshot.php?id=1567

(Also note in that photo a caught baseball, a copy of TLJ, a signed cover from JAne Jensen's book, an 80-pin scsi hard drive, a Disney ID card holder, an ipod power supply, and a transformers box. And a coupon for an oil change, although I don't think that counts as geeky)

(And for those who want to be picky, no, the O2 was not originally designed as a server, but that is what is is doing right now, so there!)

(And yes, it is named after a Discworld character and its two SMB volumes are called "Sausages" and "MysteryMeat". Wanna make something of it? )

12.03156% - Geekish Tendencies

Of course, seeing as I work in Computer Science, that makes me incredibly non-geeky.
And yet I read Fantasy, love Blade Runner, play games, and spend time on a forum.

I'm sure I would have scored higher, but I missed out on many of the computer questions. Had I got into computers earlier in my life, I would have been a bona fide geek.

In this case, it's likely poking some tongue-in-cheek fun at somebody caring about taking a Geek Test when they seem to be not at all geeky.

Peace & Luv, Liz
Ah hah! Up yours, SJH!!!

Watching all the Star Trek films doesn't make you a geek; it simply means that you have taste...

It's shocking how liking Monty Python makes you more geeky!
