If you read this one and said to yourself "this guy is retarded, it should be 10 not ten"...you may be a computer geek. - mlwarrior, on 10/12/2007, -1/+45If you are reading this linked from digg.com
- DPowers08, on 10/12/2007, -0/+37Everybody Googles themselves. Not just geeks.
- nreynolds, on 10/12/2007, -1/+33it only works if you say "there are 10 types of people in this world" not "ten"
- scriptkiddie, on 10/12/2007, -2/+33I wish I could double digg that comment
- phil.busch, on 10/12/2007, -1/+29Oh but you can! Just keep clicking the green thumbs up really fast. See how yours got so high :-)?

That one made me laugh out loud. - Chompy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+19REAL geeks prefer a plain text list. No ads, no BS, just the list. Crisp, clean and no caffeine.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20you can. click it lots and you can triple digg it.
- chaosmachine, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18this is what passes for geekdom these days?.. weak.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17"If you use digg.com as your homepage...you may be a computer geek."
Guilty as charged. - ojk007, on 10/12/2007, -3/+20"If your favorite anti-virus software is the xp formatting tool...you may be a computer geek."
youve gotta be fkn kiddin me!! - Xtopherous, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16You might be a geek if you think these are stupid and don't deserve to be on the tech front page. At least it didn't tell me to send this to 20 other people or I'd have bad luck for the next 10 years.
- Chompy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15You're not a geek unless digg is only *one* of your homepages.
- foolfromhell, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15You all do know that it reverts back to just 1 digg...right?
- sgtpinky, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10It's true. I just upped your diggs by two. Crazy, I never knew you could double click the thumbs.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12You *ARE* a redneck if any that that passes for humor in your life begins with "you may be a [...]".
- scriptkiddie, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10If you think the publisher is retarded, you might be a geek.

- vuke69, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3If you contend that *BSD is better than Linux, and can actually back up your claim...you may be a computer geek.

*looks innocent* - Computer_Kid, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6STFU Nub
- Virion, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Damn! And in multiple browsers, no less!
- sgtpinky, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5A lot of people are unable to google their own names, because they will get someone famous. Like me, Ryan Adams - I just get that knob from Tennessee.
- Daisuke, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5short_man: not just triple-digg. I've gotten as high as 7. it's like a game :)
- vuke69, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5If you refer to linux users that dont compile every package from source as "Clueless lusers" ... you are a computer geek for sure.
- Negyxo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3TRANK YOU. I WANTED TO INJURE SOMEONE. Sorry about caps.. it's just.. that annoys me because it's like the author dosen't get the joke and is pretending to get it .. or something. *shrug*
- Shroomie, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Most of those were dumb. Some of them were kind of funny thoguh.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3but...having your name show up as the topmost, and the full page filled with your stuff is definitely 1337 :D
google pranav t :)
btw, thats me :) - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2"If you understand the joke "there are ten types of people in this world those who can read binary and those who have friends"...you may be a computer geek."
That just cracked me up. I was expecting the other version, but this was there and I cracked up. - bmautry, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Don't just double click...click like you are playing Galaga.
- foolfromhell, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Wait a sec... Theres an xp formatting tool?? I have been searching XP for a formatting tool! Where is it?
- Sp1k3d, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1When you are forced to read a book and wish you could just grep out the important stuff.
When your vocabulary contains many recursive acronyms.
When you see the letters VI and don't think of the number 6.
When you have more Linux live CDs than music CDs.
When you refer to your new 30Mb/s internet connection as intollerably slow.
When you ration your food so you can buy new computer componants.
When you say "lol" or "rofl" out loud in place of laughing. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2[quote]
If you refer to Microsoft as M$...you may be a computer geek.

p.a.t.h.e.t.i.c...
id rather burn myself than call Microsoft M$ - tsunamisteve, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@ Chompy
Then explain to me the obsession with Web 2.0 here on Digg. - DougieD, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Agreed. One or two made me smile a bit, but messing up the binary joke killed it for me.
- SirNuke, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3If you never proofread and make mistakes such as ''you' instead of 'your'' and ''you ever had' instead of 'you have ever had'' you might be... well, that sin isn't limited to any subculture.
"If you ever had you computer boot to an empty partition..." Probably should be "If you have ever had your computer boot an empty partition..." I'm still not sure what that is supposed to mean. I'm no Grammar Nazi (I swear!), but ... ouch. - BugMeNot2, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2You may be a computer geek if... you get really excited over computer benchmarks.
You may be a computer geek if... you're anxiously awaiting the arrival of Intel's Core 2 Duo processors. - whitehornmatt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1> you can actually read and understand the apache config file
You mean there are people who can't? - houseofgeek, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4Buried for posting as tech news. It's not news. And if you are going to tell the binary joke, get it right.
