You're on a particularly useless cusp known as "being a bit of a nerd". Nobody really trusts what you say about computers, but at the same time, they keep asking you really annoying questions that they could answer for themselves if they just spent five minutes thinking about it. You also have to spend a lot of time not having a life in order to keep your slightly inadequate skills up to date. You have a choice: work harder and learn more, or give up and start to enjoy life. Ok, I lied a bit: my son's name is not Linus :) I see dumb people

66% apparently... "geek (noun, slang) Etymology: perhaps alteration of dialectal geck, from Low German gek, meaning fool." :laugh: So does this make me 66% fool? Are you messing with my mind? :rolleyes:

"In meetings, the person who is least competent usually does the most talking. Talking is a direct substitute for competence, at least in the minds of other people. Five minutes after you leave a meeting, you won't remember what anyone said but you will remember who did most of the talking. Withing a day your mind will translate that into a notion that the talker was unusually knowledgeable" - Scott Adams, Dilbert and the way of the weasel

Should I be proud or not??? X| X| You're pretty much a nerd, sure enough. So if that's what you wanted to hear, well done, ish. I mean you're a "kind-of" geek, but definitely not gifted. Either you're a hard worker who's as thick as two short sales executives, or you just can't be bothered with detail. Whichever, you're a loser. That's why I ramble so much. If you're short and quotable, there's a much greater danger of ending up in a sig. [Christopher Duncan on how to prevent yourself from ending up in a sig]

:-D That rocks. Not to sure this could be called a 'suitable' Christmas present. Thinking of such things, I've been dropping hints for a CP mug and mouse mat, I wonder if they will pay off...

:omg: 89%! Is this a good thing? Actually, I move to throw out the entire quiz because of it's format...just look at the file extension people! Can we really trust anyone who uses...that:laugh:
