Geek



Geek 1.o comes standard with (clockwise from top right) :
Pocket Protector - duh, to protect your pocket from attack.
Role play Handbook - Any down time away from the computer is for D&D.
High Waters - So people can see that you wore your socks today.
Computer Publication - The only thing more thrilling than being ON the computer is reading Manuel written about them!
Digital Watch - The only thing cooler would be a binary watch.

Geek is no longer an insult as 2.0 demonstrates. (clockwise from top right)
Uber Mobile Device - So if you are ever unable to access a computer (gasp!) you can still run your life and surf the web.
Casual Work Attire - Super smart people don't have to conform to the office dress code.
Wireless Laptop - Information at your fingertips 24/7
Leather Wristband - Watch? The cell phone, Ipod, PDA, and Laptop all have clocks built in.
Night Vision Contact Lens - I don't get this one, but okay.

I have seen the photographic evidence that J was once a 1.o geek. By the time I met him he had already begun to evolve into the current version. I saw this little picture on MyConfinedSpace.Com. It reminded me of J and several other friends/coworkers he has had over the last ten years. It is sad but true. Pretty funny to watch too.
