Dude, taking a girl out to a dinner is not radical. It's what average frustrated chumps do.
Just give her this geek toy and write, "Valentines is stupid, meaningless, and over-rated. I'm too sexy for a valentines card, but this shit will do. Happy now?"
Geekiness is sexy, as long as it's played right.

Boring ISTJs and INTJs mod insightful and funny posts to oblivion because they don't understand the meaning of insightful fun.

Riddle me this: why is it that if someone has trouble in math or something, other people who can do it will offer to help, but if someone is socially inept, the immediate reaction is to ostracize the person rather than offering to give them social coaching?
When someone has trouble in Math, Linux, or in any technical subjects, the geek's immediate reaction* is to ostracize the person and brand him as a n00b.

I disagree. Desktop OS and Server OS do not overlap.
They overlap if you use your server to run Minesweeper and Solitaire.

Yikes, I don't know if anyone would read this since I have a negative karma, but I'm pasting snippets from my notes:
If you wish to syntax check (lint) all the PHP files in your current directory, simply do:
for i in `ls *.php`; do
php -l $i
done
You can delete all IPv6 addresses in an interface using the following command (vanilla Bourne shell):
while i="`ifconfig le0 | grep inet6 | grep -m 1 -v '%'`"; do
ifconfig le0 $i delete
done
To inspect all figlet fonts visually, simply do:
% cd
% for i in `ls *.flf | sed -n -e 's/\(.*\)\.flf/\1/p'`; do echo Slashdot | figlet -f $i; done | less
(note: I'm using FreeBSD. YMMV.)
