The Geekiest Thing You've Done

Installed Ubuntu...

I actually won the contest my middle school was holding years back to see who could memorize the most digits in Pi. For the record, I remembered up to 3.141592653589793238462622.

I made a friend of mine play "Black Friday Rule" during a school dance and led a small group into the middle of the dance floor Jigging in Top Hats and Suit Coats.



Top that.

Why are people so focoused on the fact I said a mac?

Probably two reasons, the first is that Macs are popular, and we geeks shun popular things, the second is that there aren't a lot of games for the Mac, so we double-shun it.

Both true but my pc can run all my games and I my laptop is used mainly for programming and developing written work so my mac stands in for art and design work.

A Mac? You're not a proper geek! You're a poseur!

I jest of course.

Blasphemer! Soon the Mac users of the world will unite and take over the world! We do already actually, we just don't go on about it, its best if you live blissfully unaware...

Come fellow Mac-ians let us join forces and crush the evil that is Windows! As you can see I have nearly daily arguments about which is better , I ALWAYS win!

Ah but I am stubborn. And I mean TRULY Stubborn.

Alas you have never met me. For I am not simply stubborn, but cunning. I never loose a Mac vs PC argument! but we will not go into that here, the appropriate thread must be made.

Told people to respect my GI Joe folder. What? hes a hero! Show some respect!

Instead of going to my senior prom, I stayed home and played Kingdom Hearts 2, which recently released at the time. It was a lot more fun and less expensive than blowing all my money on a limo and rentable tuxedos for a social event I know I won't enjoy.

I also graduated from high school with a DS in my pocket. I played it on the way home and finished the last chapter of a game I had on it.

Edit: Another thing, I wrote a 7 page college essay on how geeky I am about video games. I had to drastically cut it down because my English instructor said the rough draft was too long, but I got an A on the paper.

im a genuine geek,so i do geeky stuff all the time. but the first thing that comes to mind. is making the "Still Alive" song(the "elevator music" version that you hear in the intro from that little radio) my ringtone on my cell.

3 Friends and I ran about the town fighting with fake swords. All around town. >.>

I tried that, they were never impressed by a level 60 nightelf.

Rented a Pony just for Con.

Was completely worth it.

Don't worry, I'm not taking a pop at Macs or at Mac users, I'm pretty much just being facetious. Hell, Gabe and Tycho of Penny Arcade, two massive figures in gaming culture, are both Mac owners.

I'd love to give a Mac a try because I'm sure they're really great machines.

What I'm not keen on is Apple's reactions to people doing things with the iPhone that they didn't intend, like jailbreaking them. But that's a very different issue and I think I've threadjacked enough for one night.

I have nicely framed TF2 posters on the walls of my living room. I also have a Resident Evil chainsaw controller as the centerpiece on my entertainment center. I recently had some people over from work for a "presentation night," where all the interns go over their current projects, and got multiple comments.

 

[ExaltedK9]

I actually challenged one of my friends to Mortal Kombat once...in real life. And I owned!

I did this with a friend, only with lightsabres and police badges. We were Future Cops! Though, there were a lot of scared sheeple around.

I don't think playing an MMORPG qualifies as "being good with computers." There's kind of a big difference between grinding for hours everyday and being able to troubleshoot computer hardware. One's a WoW player, another is a computer technician.

Special edition 3D Mario Wii! Yeah, mario's definitely coming out of the pipe on my wii. it's really cool.

At one stage most of my group at school played WoW so we would ask people there stats and pretend to Look for Groups for dungeons and stuff and questions like how many slots is your bag? Was epic at the time cause we aren't all geeky, Freaked people out when we started sussing out their bags though. Called a chick in my class who sits on her Hip-Top on myspace all day an irl troll, Then explained the concept of trolling to my whole class.
