Yesterday Darryl said I am a geek (yes, a super geek said I am a geek, very unconvincing), I am not a geek.
Here are the premises of my argument:
P1 I can read and write Chinese.
P2 I read a lot of fiction books, in Chinese.
P3 My life blog has 14.7 times more posts than this blog.
P4 I am not that excited whenever Alex show me new C# features.
P5 I buy Marie Claire and Cosmopolitan often, and New Scientist. Never buy any software magazine.
P6 I love Final Fantasy. Can discuss every single one from FFVII to FFXII.
P7 I do Philosophy. Not master/PhD of Software Engineering, or Microsoft Certificate exams.
P8 I watch a lot of cartoons, and read heaps of anime.
P9 When I have free time, I would play FF, Civilization IV, Sims, etc. Not coding.
P10 I have Mr. and Mrs Potato Head on my desk in the office.
P11 I have Haro from Gundam Seed (a pink one) on my desk as well.
P12 In the old mIRC days, I did not write my own scripts.
P13 Never interested in hacking.
P14 I love All Blacks (yes, especially DC).
So in conclusion, I can't be called a geek. If you think this doesn't logically follow, yeah, it doesn't. However because I am not a geek, so I don't care whether it logically follows or not. :P
