You might be a nerd if . . .
February 2nd, 2007 | by Craig |You hit page 644 in a book, and immediately think: -rw-r--r--.
Sorry, It just struck me.
[UPDATE]: Yup, just hit -rwxr-xr-x.

LOL. That puts me in mind of something I have always wondered about the web. Does this apply:
Normal webpage: -rwxr–r– (744)
Normal webpage with ajax: -rwxr-xr-x (755)
A Blog: -rwxrw-r– (764)
A Wiki: -rwxrw-rw- (766)
A Wiki with ajax: -rwxrwxrwx (777)
Ahh, good times.

Stop - yer killin’ me. What on earth are you guys talking about?

Trust me, Mark, the mystery is most likely far more interesting than the actual meaning.

What do you think when you get to page 404?

I’m going to block your whole subnet, you lamerz.
You could also go really old school and try:
10 HOME
12 SPEED=175
15 PRINT:”CRAIG IS A COMPUTER NERD! “;
20 GOTO 15
25 END
//e rules baby.

I would do just as well at a site written in Esperanto.

What, you’re saying this doesn’t happen to *everybody*?
Is it still nerdy if someone is talking about the crime of B&E, and you keep wondering why “Branch if Not Equal” is illegal?
JP: you forgot:
17 BEEP

I think it’s a bad sign that when I try to do something and it doesn’t work, the word sudo is the first thing that pops into my head.

At least it’s not

Crap Dave, I have Craigs RSS feeds piped directly into a root shell. I appreciate that

Oops. The next time someone tells me that my “poetry” isn’t dangerous I’ll think again.

I think that Vogon poetry might have just moved to the 4rth worst in the galaxy. Your might rank in between Azgoths of Kria and Paul Neil Milne Johnstone of Redbridge…
Of course, my machine would have survived just fine as you put the security mechanism in of prefacing every line with a #comment.

Obviously your comment is proof that there is no accounting for taste. But next trime I’ll be sure to write a shell script and make sure the perms are set for 777.

This whole thread reminds me of a bumper sticker I once saw that said:
I’m waiting to to see something comparable for octile.

OK, one of my favorite poems:

and, from the old movie
There’s no place like 127.0.0.1

In the meantime, Cammy’s eyes have once again glazed over in confusion.

A co-worker of mine has a shirt like that for hex.

It turns out the devil just wanted everyone to be able to read and write.

You might be a nerd if you think that a PINK CHICKEN should replace the BALD EAGLE and that AGE OF AQUARIUS should be our new national antheme and that the RAINBOW flag used by gays and eco-wackos should be our new flag
