    Yeah, you tend to get that, or "YO OMG U MUST BE 1337 H4X0R"

    And that's why I don't openly preach that I'm a programmer...

    What's C++?
    You know what date is on this coin? 1958. It's been travelling twenty two years to get here.
    And now it's here.
    And I'm here.
    And it's either heads or tails.
    And you have to say...
    Call it.

    You are kidding right? Anyways about being called a geek
    that has happened to me before. Probably because I have the OpenGL Red Book (OpenGL 1.4) Programming Windows 5th edition, and The Unofficial Guide to Ethical Hacking, and until I gave it to a friend (probably should have kept it duh...) I did have a C++ college text book. BTW If you think that is bad I'm only 15.
