You know you’re a geek when…

Consider this a “you know you’re a geek when…” post. Drop your comments and explain you interpretation of what qualifications are needed in order to be titled a bona-fide geek. We’ll start things out with the image above sent in by Alysha. Apparently her daily life allowed her to amass a huge collection of commercial grade cat-6 wiring. What did she do with the 5-6 pounds of wiring? She turned it into a make-shift beanie. Can you top that for geek apparel?

Can anyone top the LAN hat?

    Alysha, it was that humorous. I opened the email and immediately thought.. whoa, this deserves some credit.

    Hey, it’s a start.

    I’ve made a wall clock out of a 5 1/4 in floppy disk a long time go. Think that was the beginning of my geekiness.

    You’ve quoted stars in formal conversations, and ever uttered the words, sudo (x-action) when someone refuses to do x.
