I am officially a geek.

[Baitball Blogger]

Just bought computer screen wipes and a spray can of air.

What makes YOU a geek, assuming you see yourself that way.

[digonswine]

1. Be geekier-

turn the air-can upside down and freeze stuff with its super-cooled awesomeness!
Watch your fingers.

3. It's cold? I never noticed that.

[digonswine]

4. Anytime you decompress a gas-it will cool-

but turn it upside-down, where the liquid is coming out and quickly evaporating---awesome!-unless they changed the formula!

2. No Geeks in the Lounge.

Okay. I see how it's going to be.

5. OG here - Original Geek.

I bite the heads off chickens.

Not really but I'd probably be considered a modern-day Geek due to being online during every waking moment and the fact that I've seen the Star Wars OT over 50 times.

6. Star Wars 50 times?

I bestow you with the name, Sir Geek.

[OriginalGeek]

17. You rang?

[RedStateLiberal]

18. LOL Great username! (nt)

7. I baked my old laptop motherboard

in the oven to remake the solder.

Then I threw the motherboard away.

Geek FAIL.

8. We'll give you an honorable mention.

9. It's a long list

The whiteboards, rpn calculators, antique slide rules, soldering irons, ham radios, dremel tools, the oscilloscope, the telescope, etc. ad nauseam. Adding 'ad nauseam' to my Firefox dictionary....

10. I bow to you.

19. Left out the pocket protectors....

11. "A" can of air?

I buy them in packs of 3 at Costco. I use them to dust the house.

That's just the tip of my geekberg.

12. It's about being interested in science.

NOT science fiction.
I don't read any fiction, just fact.

I have no interest in science fiction.
I think real science is far more interesting.

I earned a B.A. in biology many years ago.

I got a component stereo in 1971, because I am into classical music and jazz and rock and roll. I never knew any other women who had a component stereo. I still have my Marantz receiver and my original speakers.

13. A computer museum I call a "house".

14. I couldn't bear to part with my Atari 800XL computer....

...that I wrote my own programs for, among other things, calculating/plotting orbital paths of all nine planets (yes, there were nine then...) It's still in the attic, and AFAIK, it still works, and I have the OS disk, and probly a couple of my programs/data files.

When I got my 486 PC, I had to learn its newer BASIC programming language, but never could get it to do everything I did on the Atari....more's the pity, I had a lot of fun with that machine.

For my 16th birthday, I asked my parents for a slide rule, not a car. Still have it, too.

15. You could huff the spray cans of air....

that would turn you from a geek to a douchebag loser.

At least you wouldn't be a geek

[OriginalGeek]

16. Geek?

what is this thing of which you speak?
