Yup, when I touched a keyboard for the first time, I started throwing like a girl and tripping over my shoelaces while adjuting my suspenders.

LOL!! ah, that was great.

I talk about computers about 50% of the time...regardless of who it is...either they respond and we have an intelligent conversation, or...they stare at me blankly...either way I enjoy it! Which brings me to my point: Don't be afraid of your computer geek heritage(or, erm...inclination)! Where the title computer geek proudly for tomorrow you shall rule the world!

we've got a nice upside-down pyramid going with that poll.....dang, i do 2-4.....I'd much rather go make out with my girlfriend than write a program.....

Well, I only sleep about 6 hours a day, sometimes less - and I can't think of too much time I spend away from the computer. SO I guess the only time I am not on the computer is when I am driving to work (to be on a computer), going to the shop to buy cola - or in the Gym getting that bit of excercise that prevents me from shrivelling up from computer overuse.

I think a good poll would be "who gets physical problems from using computers too much?". My mousing arm is shot!

There we go, everybody - a great way to alienate your friends.

I couldn't talk about computers that much if I wanted to...I'd have nothing to say...except, maybe, "RAM everything! Even the gigabytes!"

Wow, very precise Eibro.

Ken, usually I'm talking about games/how much better my computer is/new hardware/new software/funny stories about dumb people tinkering with hardware or software/etc. But yeah, when I run out of things to say and my 50% quota hasn't been reached for the day, I usually have to resort to yelling out "EMACHINES SUX!" or "NEVER USE LINUX!" (sometimes for variety I replace "LINUX" with "WINDOWS ME" Yup, its a glorious life being a computer geek.

[edit]oh yeah, and all my friends were either computer geeks from the start or I've turned them into computer geeks (well a couple are still computer geek wanna-be's)[/edit]

8 hour school days: * 5 days = 40;
168 - 40 = 128;
Sleep: 7 hours per night * 7 nights = 49;
128 - 49 = 79;
Hockey: 7 hours per week
79 - 7 = 72;
Gym: 1h 30m * 5.5 days per week = 7.15;
72 - 7.15 = 64.85;
Other stuff: 3 hours per day * 7 days = 21 hours;
64.85 - 21 = 43.85;
43.85/7 = 6.2 hours per day which I'm probably on the computer.

Straight men definitely aren't that organized or precise

Hmm...I said 4 hours, but it's probably more.
