- you could quote lines from LOTR BEFORE the movies came out.
Nope.

- you know, without having to look it up, what LOTR means.
Check. Umm you'd have to be an idiot not to. I think the general public knows what it means

- you have either: more than one computer, or more than one operating system.
Check.

- you can read binary.
Check.

- you have a light-sabre.
Nope.

- you know what TCP/IP, SMTP, POP, USB and RAID mean.
Check.

- you know any programming language (other than high-school pascal).
Check. Though, I don't know pascal. Thats way old school for me.

- you have more online friends than RL friends.
Nope. They're about equal at 0.

- you agonized over the ideal online nick for more than 12 seconds.
12 seconds? Is that all?

- you wish people would call you "Gandalf".
Nope. Anyone who would take that name is pathetic. Its too comon now.

- your formalwear includes a t-shirt printed to look like a tuxedo.
HAHAHA I want one of those though.

- you have a picture of a penguin, anywhere.
Don't have or never used a Linux :-(

- every day is casual day at work.
Meybe.

- you can drink more than 4 cups of coffee and still not get a caffeine buzz.
Don't drink coffee. Learn how to stay awake without it.

- you are a regular on an online programming forum
Nope. Never been to one of those before.

Bleh, Star Wars is old. Pretty lame how it made a big come back with "additional" scenes. Woopie doo. Same plot. Why watch them change a few minor details when I could watch in on VCR.

I wasn't much of a Star Trek fan, but recently I've grown fond of it. Guess its because there isn't much else on during the day.

I've been a LotR geek for about 8 years now. I'm a fan of the movies; for one thing, they persuaded my girlfriend to read the books.
