According to this quiz, I'm only 32% geeky ...

"Itâ€™s all a little bewildering, isnâ€™t it? Never mind, that nice geeky person down the road wonâ€™t mind at all when you ask them to get the viruses off your laptop for the tenth time this year."

That's good to know! :yh_glasse

I've had computer repair bills to prove to back that up.

Quick! Where is the delete button on that post! :wah:

Anywho, that's what 5 years in a technical callcenter (internet/phone/tv) does for you, makes you a geek :wah:

Smartypants! Why are you mucking about with stupid personality quizzes instead of solving the worldâ€™s energy problems and genetically engineering flies that can find their way around windows?

I am the son of a Computer Geek. Dad taught me Binary and Hex before I learned my multiplication tables.

I may have to take a little more time these days, but the process still comes quite natural.

I'll bet you also saw Orange rather than the #ff0000 text string then

Actually, I saw Red. But I don't recall that was one of the options.

I clicked "other" for FF000 because I was thinking of the CABI code for plant sciences. I guess that means I'm not a geek. :wah:

The fact that you were able to turn the computer on and navigate well enough to take the quiz should be enough to give you at least a 2!

So far it looks like Lars Mac is the geekiest FG member ...

Does creating a computer when your 12 (After only beiing shown once) count as geeky?

LarsMar you do know I am a girl correct? I was shown a month before I needed to fix mine. I didn't really practice and I only made one miner mistake which I fixed after 5 minutes of trying to figure it out so I do deserve the deduction of the 3 points.

Umm, ok. I was responding what I thought was Tyr's score. He's not a girl.

Nono - I was giving the 97% to the newbie. It's coincidental that I also scored the same.

Ah. I see. My apologies to the newbie, and to your esteemed self.
