Respectable outlook on the lifestyle of a computergeek? - General

I just had a thought here. You know how dreamy and adventurous some captains and pilots make it sound in some movies when they tell landcrab people that have grown attached to them that an old captain belongs to the sea, or a pilot belongs in the air, going to place to place, meeting new people, not sticking around. Well what if one were to think of something similar for the good old computer geeks? Think about Tank from The Matrix. What saying would someone like that have? Can't think of anything epic that would fill anyone with admiration or longing, but considering how popular this lifestyle of sitting at the computer someone is bound to spawn something brilliant to say. Am I right yee men? Can you think of anything at all? Like... a technician runs a tight ship, keeps it clean, gathers no moss... some shit like that.

An IT Technician gathers no moss you say?

Any although you normal people don't realise it you are just as dependant on it as we are. If us cyber people died out, facebook, myspace, twitter. all gone as would you Ipods, macs, laptops, and all those games that you find acceptable. You would collapse without us, but we do what we do because we can, because we must, because there is nothign else we can do, there is no other way. Thus is the life of a geek.

Another point is that in the real world we are alone but using the internet, we are with others, thousands, all at the same time. The internet binds us together, unifies us, makes us one. We are never alone on the internet. Our name is Legion for we are many and yet we are one. you may have you lives but we have each other.

ROFL, star wars xD Oh oh and Ghostrider, xD x 1000

The Internet. Its a virus and its spreading fast, you know your parents said stay away, but somehow it feels good, like you know its not going to hurt you, you feel warm, with company, knowing to break away from the norm and be yourself, be a different self

"Fuck da police" :smug:

[QUOTE=Nightrazr;18389550]Anonfag, eh?[/QUOTE] Tis actually a demon from the bible. I've heard the phase "my name is legion for we are many!" so many times i just had to wiki it. Quick off topic question, why do people have to put fag after everything to make it derogatory? Why not anondike or anonhetro or anonbi? All those words amount to the same thing, anonymous sexual preference. just something to think about.

i'd go for 'anonchickwithadick'
