This is how much of a nerd I am

[gadgetgirl85]

I'm pretty nerdish myself. I research stuff in my leisure time

In fact, I've actually said "loll" out loud when someone made a joke.

At least it wasn't "roffle".

And I've never had a date (or bothered trying). Beat that for nerdiness

Haha, just kidding.

Probably the nerdiest thing I've done is take a wireless keyboard into the restroom with me to change the music I was listening to. That and hacking an audio cable (3.5mm to rca) as I'd forgotten my cable at home and really needed one.

You got to be a (or girl-y) to appreciate this:
1. Went to Fred Segal in LA last year. Did not buy clothes, but a Gravis laptop bag....for myself.
2. Was in SF, briefly (10 minute) jacket purchase at Armani. Spent the rest of the day at the Apple store next door attending random classes.
3. Beginning to think that ObjectiveC is poetry.

Regarding the Command + Z thing. Ive done that a few times. Ive done something or seen something that make me immediately think 'undo'. Then feel angry at the fact I cant control other people or time.

Im working on it though.

We had a pretty nerdish conversation here at work at lunch yesterday. Our HR manager joined a few of us (all engineers), and somehow the conversation got around to what our company ID numbers were.

We baffled the HR manager by asking she could change our ID numbers to a) 65536, b) 2^8 -1, c) 0x7F (that was mine). Then one of us (not me) asked if he could have his ID Big Endian rather than Little Endian. Quite surreal.

That's funny. Reminded me of when I referred to my first marriage as the beta version.

Was that before or after the divorce?

 

[MalcolmJID]

I've let slip a "lol" and "roffle", I know random facts that make me sound nerdy, and I spend most of my time on the computer.

Does that qualify as a nerd?

I have a cute girlfriend!

Me too

Does he even have a daughter?

Well, since the thread iSaint posted is for paying members only, for all you non-paying peoples, yes he does have a daughter. Named Lisa. Sound familiar?

A ha ha, the other night the girlfriend and I were watching a movie featuring macs. The main actor was getting rid of some incriminating photos from his powerbook, so he does apple - move to trash.
Then my girlfriend says "Empty trash, EMPTY TRASH!"

They would have to do Secure Empty Trash to make sure that they were gone.

Me too.

Yeah, funny thing is that I said that once the movie was over. But that was a pretty nerdy thing to say for a dancer.

I find this thread the funniest. OK final one for me, but don't tell anyone. Yeah, I know it's not the real "birth" but I wanted to capture the moment anyway.
