Getting called a geek... BY a geek!

[FastbackJon]

I was suprised today to be called an official super-geek by a friend of mine.  I was going to let it go, but he kept pushing and pushing and pushing it on me, asking if I liked Star Wars and what not and finally he said I was so bad that I needed a trophy to announce my geekdom to the world.

Now get this... the guy who called me a geek is 22, unemployed, not in school, and lives with his mom. I asked him and he doesn't plan to move out. He wants to live in her house in her attic even when he's married. I'm 21 and live with my mom, but only until I finish college at the end of winter quarter. I have a full time job (well internship) as a software engineer, but that's because I learned that stuff in college and its only the natural course. I don't code just for fun, and I hardly know anything about computer hardware. I don't even know how fast my own computer is and I've had it for a few years. This guy knows hardware inside and out and can take one apart and put it back together and spends much of his spare time on the computer.

He's also too shy to ever approach a girl. We worked together about a year ago and there was this hot girl also working there. I could go up to her anytime with confidence and talk to her and flirt, but this guy was way too shy to ever talk to her, let alone walk past her, all he would do was to make rude comments about her "nice ass" behind her back.

This guy also couldn't swing a baseball bat to save his life, and I doubt he could shoot hoops either. I played for the school team in basketball and baseball, and I can throw/catch a football pretty good too. What's worse is that he sits at home all day on the computer, sometimes chatting with his "serious" internet girlfriend who lives in Alabama (although I think they recently broke up), and when he's not on the computer, he told me he likes to watch Battlestar Galactica episodes. I'm more into watching American Muscle Car episodes, or stuff like Overhaulin'.

Now I doubt anyone really cares about any of this. But my nerd "friend" who was making fun of me is also on this message board, and he knows who he is, I just wanted to get my point across.

I won't name his name, but he has a [edited by FastbackJon 8/3/05 10:22:45AM]

geek with a Charger? 

[Wakko]

Ah, but you've got the 440 and a hood scoop!!!

[FastbackJon]

Dude you forgot the spoiler! lol   

Yeah, hard to look like a nerd when you fire up that 440 that you just put together in your '60's Charger and it's rumbling beneath you shaking the ground and irritating the neighbors.

[69bananabeast]

yeah I cant wait to get my 440 finished and   run my electrical cutouts   .   I bet the neighbors will be really happy

my friend and I have a goal to be able to shake the windows of a downtown resteraunt since 3 of the walls are made of glass.  

[Wakko]

Nothing like setting off car alarms while idling through a parking lot...aahhhhhhh.

[FastbackJon]

My neighbor whose pole building shop I drive by came out of it one day when I was idling the 440 by with open headers. His shop has thin metal siding and a similar roof, and he was wondering what the heck made it shake and vibrate so much, like a tank was going by or something, I just laughed.

[69bananabeast]

Right now I can only imagine what it sounds like for a 440 .  When I started pulling out the 318 (some ppl said sounds like a 383)  and ran open headers the neighbors came out because they thought something fell on me.

[Shakey]

Kinda sounds like the old "pot calling the kettle black" syndrome.  I wouldn't worry about it too much.  Sounds like you have all the moves with the ladies and he will be left at home alone with his Mommy to play with himself.

thats right man, you cannot judge someone if you do not know their full potential

[FastbackJon]

[thats right man, you cannot judge someone if you do not know their full potential

But how come you like to make fun of people who are better off than you are?

[thats right man, you cannot judge someone if you do not know their full potential

Hard to tell. I guess that is something in their nature. I just purchased Sebring Convertible and I had questions like "Why do you need that car? What will you doo over the winter? You'll get sick yourself diving with open roof?....."

It's easy to make the big money if they're not spending it on a mortgage because they live with their moms.

Why do I get the feeling Jon is talking about someone on this site    I think

Dan

Yeah Dan, it's Max, Silver R/T on the site. He's usually pretty cool but sometimes out of nowhere he'll just get all strange and start making fun of me, IM'ing me at work constantly trying to degrade and make fun of me.... (you're ricer boy, you're a nerd, you watch star wars, you jerk off all day at work under your desk, you are lazy at work, you're scared of me, you're like to eat groundhogs, you're a wimp, etc.) Must be a personality defect or something. I just got fed up with it and had to vent here, might put an end to it, or maybe he'll just grow up.

[89MOPAR]

   
A good slap fight between the two of you should work it out . Hahahaa.

Ummmn, Silver R/T, normal women don't want to be your wife if it means living in your mommies attic.

Maybe you guys can find common ground, like putting down the 06 charger,... oh wait, already done.

Ps- sometimes the hot chick will talk to the geek regardless, as she doesn't feel him to be a threat to her independence [ think about it]
       { she ain't even considering , coming up to mommies attic to look at Star Wars figurines }
   

[bull]

Oh man, this is going to get real interesting real quick.

Nah... it's all good.

[Silver R/T]

who wants to live with mom? I dont, when Ill afford house Ill move into my own place, Jon as far as I remember you still live with mom and drive her car often, hmmm. At least Ive got 3 my own cars and I dont have to drive my mom's car (oh ya ur moms car is import, so shall I go ahead and call you ricer since you call everyone ricer that owns or drives import) I can take apart computer, ya. so.... if you cant you have to be physically retarded as it doesnt take much to take apart computer, much easier than putting on 440 headers. Its misfortune as I cannot sit at work, testing batteries whole day like 'someone' while browsing www.hotornot.com like someone on here, I wont mention any names but he has ...you know who im talking about...After work I do not go shoot ground hogs for fun and then discuss how their guts blew open (do you see how this person gets so bored and desperate hmm) Also I do not discuss other races/immigrants, as I respect everyone and give my utmost respect to anyone that respects me. Oh ya I do not talk about his mom, how I want to make out with her and ask him if she shaves or not.
Im amazed that people I trust can strike you back and talk shit behind your back, then to your face theyre all cool and sensitive, but behind your back they just wish youd go back to your country etc.

[Old Moparz]

I almost miss listening to the unholyVWguy & the frenchman named hemistage8-1/2. 

Why not get together, have some cocoa & make up? 

[Wakko]

So now the question remains...Silver R/T, does your mom shave?  She hot?   

[FastbackJon]

For the record, I've never browsed hototnot at work, I'm too busy building software applications. And I drive my mom's car maybe once a month. I have my own '74 Dart as a daily driver, and I own my own '66 and '67 Chargers. I already stated I live with my mom, but that's only until I get done with school, and Silver I asked you if you wanted to move out and rent a place together, and you said no, you liked living with your mom, and you were planning on buying a house with her so you could live in the attic even whe you're married. That's kinda strange dude, IMO.

And also yes I do shoot Columbian ground squirrels. Used to be with just a bb gun when I was younger, then I moved up to a rimfire .22, and now it is just a 20ga shotgun. They are legal to kill since they are destroying the crops on my land. And yes, it is kind of fun too, at least more fun than sitting on my arse inside watching battlestar galactica.

I've tried to be so nice. Just sometimes a person can push you and push you and push you, and they're relentless at trying to make you feel weak and puny to your face, even when they are the one in the less fortunate situation. I just don't get it.

And yes, I went on here and posted behind his back about him. But I didn't name any names and it wasn't clear who I was talking about to anyone (except Silver). And I even apologized, but even after the apology he just couldn't get enough and kept bugging me and degrading me, so I associated his name with the post.

And no, his mom isn't that hot, and I've never seen her shave. I'm not sure whether that is a good thing or a bad thing....

prove it, i never said i like living with mom, so if you have fu9999 issue with it go jerk it, maybe youll calm down. Its pretty obvious who you were talking about even if you didnt mention my name, you gotta be f99tard if you do not realize it. Then ive told you numerous times that I do not appreciate "your mom" jokes and you would bother me with it over again and again. your problem is that you do not take other people's opinions into consideration and when someone blunt like me tells you ure an ass you get all defensive and feel the need to post it on here. get mature boy. Esp after you got that job of your you became even cockier, when you didnt have it youd use to come around and be normal guy.

[Silver R/T]

for the record Id rather pay off house than renting with fastbackjon, especially when he gets his "period" of being cocky again (which happens once in a month)

[FastbackJon]

Prove it? I know it full well, no need to prove anything to anyone.

I've never even broke a sweat over this little issue. I just think its funny that you have some serious anger issues to deal with, you're obviously very angry now as you are still cursing me, and previously your anger carried over into you insulting me constantly over on IMs and emails.

I'd just ignore you most of the time, but when you went so far as to label me "official geek of the year" and "napoleon dynamite" when you're so much more geeky than I am, I just thought your audacity was hilarious and had to post over here about it without naming any names.

Of course it was obvious who I was posting about when YOU were reading it. DUH. But to anyone else reading it, they had no clue UNTIL you further had to keep insulting me, and because of that I posted your name.

I'm not the one with all the life problems and anger issues that I take out on other people. You surely can't expect to constantly hound me like that and just get away with it?

It's time you start looking in the mirror to pop your own pimples before you start calling the neighbor up the street a "pizza face".

[RD]

this is very similar in style to fastbackjon's "am i hot or not" thread if you all remember that one?  

[69bananabeast]

no offense to any one but it seems as If this crap belongs else where like Springer. If you will

Let the Bitch Slappin' Commence!!

[FastbackJon]

Yeah, I agree, it might have been in bad taste.

But oh well.

[Silver R/T]

face it, you dont have many friends dude, most people on here know who you were talking about so no bs. And I spend 24/7 on this board? nope only when I got spare time. you on other hand sit here while you 'work' and while youre at home. yes people hes supposedly 'working' but as you can see this is his work, sitting on here stirring up shit. And yes you're geek talking about how many numbers of your beloved 66/67 there were built all the time. Ya Ive told Jon that it was pretty boring and lame numerous times but he doesnt get it cause hes all that 'numbers geek' precious number ooo sooo horny over the numbers. What bored geeks do? Well sometimes they make registry cause they have too much time on their hands and they get hard on over the numbers I guess. And no I dont watch DOH old series like you do, which is geeky by the way too, something geek would do on his free time

[Silver R/T]

this is very similar in style to fastbackjon's "am i hot or not" thread if you all remember that one? 

oh ya thanks for pointing that out man, do you remember that one people lol, that was another one of his serial geek threads. Makes me laugh hard just remembering that one, its some kind of self-fetish I think...

[Khyron]

hm, I don't want to get involved but... he may be a geek, but your last post put you well into the asshole category with me.

You insult people who deal with numbers.... what about accountant?
You insult people who started their registries.... So what, it's their time.
You say he's stirring up shit? What the hell do you think you just did?
You call people that may enjoy watching theDOH geeks? You just slammed half this board.

You are not a geek; you’re an ignorant little man from what I’m reading.

For your retort. I don't deal with numbers, I OWN a home and don't live with mommy, I'm an Auto mechanic / Computer technician, I have 4 automobiles, a wife, 2 kids, and this interesting thing called responsibility.

Do yourself a favor and think before you type.

I'm confused, Khyron, which one are you talking about?

[Khyron]

sorry, I'm talking to Silver R/T

Blanket Insult #1 lame numerous times but he doesnt get it cause hes all that 'numbers geek' precious number ooo sooo horny over the numbers.

Blanket Insult #2 What bored geeks do? Well sometimes they make registry cause they have too much time on their hands and they get hard on over the numbers I guess.

Blanket Insult #3And no I dont watch DOH old series like you do, which is geeky by the way too, something geek would do on his free time

I felt that extreamly uncalled for. If he has a problem with this guy, fine, they can have thier lovers spat. But there is no needs to insult half this board. and I believe those 3 comments did. Guess it makes mommys boy feel beter about himself :shrug:



*EDIT* GOD I hate it when I have to get serious!!!!!!!!!!!

'
I didnt start this shit, you can email fastbackjon to bash him for starting this crap, just cause I can put together computer system doesnt mean Im geek, im more intellectual
Its not my problem that Jon feels like starting bs thread about his feelings/what he thinks and then someone else gets blamed for it. but its America, we can express our opinions, so f you all haters
