**Major loves to Meg-Chan for that immortal scene**
Guilty, I use 'grok' all the time.
You might be a geek if you get out of bed in the middle of the night because you just dreamt something you really want to post on KC forums and don't want to risk forgetting it!
*guilty*
You might be a geek if you *have actually been in the middle of a pirates vs. ninjas LARP*, because you've LARPd being a pirate in the SCA on & off for nearly a decade (way before the Caribbean movies), & your (now-ex) boyfriend organized a ninja raid on one of the principalities' camps......yeah that happened. (2002).
You might be an old-school geek if whenever you meet someone named Joshua, you smile, as that's the password to the WOPR in War Games. Ditto if you think of War Games every time there's a Whopper commercial on TV or you drive past a Burger King. Ditto if you randomly a couple times a year imitate a computer voice saying 'Wouldn't you prefer a nice game of chess?' or 'Greetings, Professor Falken.' Uh, yeah. Guilty all the way around. Ditto again when I saw Matthew Broderick in a bit part at Homeland Security on 30 Rock & thought of that as being like the Treasury Dept. hiring the guy diCaprio played in Catch Me if You Can.
You might be from a family of geeks if the most coveted Chanukah presents are generally books of movie and TV trivia.--Just mailed some to my aunts & uncles in their 50s-60s.
You might be an old-school geek if you still have some trading cards from 1977-9 (mine include Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Charlie's Angels, and Grease).
You might be a geek if the present you gave someone for giving the keynote speech in your fanfic room was a handful of Buffy collectible cards (that would be me to Professor Toni Levi, PhD).....
You might be a geek if you would have more fun staying up all night writing in this thread than going to sleep.....guilty again.
You might be a geek if you took so long having fun writing in this thread that the system logged you out, but since you've lost data before you'd already copied the text & were able to post as soon as you logged back in! (guilty again and on that note, sweet dreams)
