Hey all, so today I just noticed how much of a geek I am. I am so used to OS X that when I am out and looking for something, or looking in a book for info etc, I always feel like hitting Command + F to find stuff! Share your geek stories!
 
When I am at the copy machine, each time the scanner runs across the page I exclaim out loud: "Command + C!"

When I leave work for the day I exclaim: "Command + Q!" as I walk out the door.
 
I'll often use the term "click" accidently.
Let's say I'm helping someone fill out a form that has checkboxes, I might instruct them to "click on-- I mean, check this one..."
 
You take pictures like this:eek:

You scroll through MR and other tech forums while you're bored in class or out with people even
 
I'm often on my laptop and need to change the brightness setting depending on where I am so one day I walked into my room and it was kinda dark so I thought to myself, I need to adjust the brightness setting and pictured the F2 button on my macbook.
 
You write an essay on paper and spend 30 seconds looking for the spell check and save functions. < ok it was an 8am exam.

You check the live webcam to see what the weather is like outside , instead of walking a few steps to the window around corner.

You try to Command+I a package to figure out its weight(size)
 
When you're writing an essay and waiting for red, squiggly lines to appear under words you think you've misspelled haha.. i use it so often now when Im writing I swear sometimes I feel like its gonna pop up, then reality hits =[
I was taking a 5 hour exam, and during the 3 essays I was waiting for something to tell me how to spell necessary haha
