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😱

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.
 
When you have an Apple tattoo.

*No, I don't have one (or ever aspire to) but I remember a poster in the Picture Gallery had one LMAO.
 
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
 
I feel good when I add memory to my Mac, replace PDA's screen, fix some software glitches. Those are my geek moments.
