5 reasons why I am called a geek !

with 10 comments

I am a geek. :P At least my friends think so….

Got nothing worthwhile to do. So thought of writing a off topic post. Here are 5 reasons why I am a geek according to my friends. Get ready for the laugh riot…

  1. I use Linux – And 90% of my friends cannot find the head or tail of Linux ( They search for C:\, D:\ … ) and proclaim that Linux is only for geeks like me. :grin:
  2. My Windows XP desktop never looks like one – Somebody explain them that there are cool visual styles and icon patchers available for Windows. :P
  3. My music files have Album Art – What a big thing ! One says, OMG look music files contain pictures. :lol:
  4. I use Mozilla Firefox – Nothing to say here. :shock:
  5. I can install Linux myself - Big deal ? Huh! :roll:

BTW, this list can go on and on … Do your friends call you a geek ?

    My case is almost the same.

    1. I use FX. Ppl tell me (inc. our IT admin) say it’s bad! Many have not even heard of it before.

    2. Ppl tell I visit ‘strange’ sites. Those sites include Google Reader, Flickr, blogs, etc.. :lol:

    3. What windows am I running? Is it Vista? After all I put in some cool VS!

    hey nice list.
    I even use FF.
    I consider myself a geek because I can do nonstop programming for 18 to 20 hours :) and lots of other reasons!

    Debian is cake. What most people find hard are distros like Gentoo.
