ok, the geek code in my “member profile” doesn’t have dashes converted to em-dashes (thanks britta!)

http://www.ebb.org/ungeek/ is a place where you can decode geek codes

I wonder what the Geek Code Version Nasty would include? …

part of the problem is that some of your nerdy dashes are being automatically converted to em-dashes, which don’t count as part of geek coding!!! bug!! error!

i did mine about four years ago and i don’t remember what it says:

I for one am too embarrassed to do that survey. And I can’t read the geek code.

I just tried decoding this, and it didn’t work… do over!?

(I am secretly hoping everyone will post their geek code!)

Before, I was also hoping Nasty Nets would just become a trove of survey posts… haha, there’s still hope though!

(still working on the ultimate survey… a collection of every survey question…)
