So you Think You're an Expert!  Here are eleven Ways to Tell if You are:

  1. You talk a lot about 'hardware' without being able to tell the difference between a gasket and a hexagonal lug nut?
  2. You often use the word 'batch' while failing to follow it with the phrase "...of cookies"?
  3. You claim to know several 'languages', none of which are taught by the Berlitz School?
  4. You often use the expression 'Garbage In - Garbage Out', even when you're not eating at the cafeteria?
  5. When playing cards, you turn pale and shudder each time someone says 'shuffle the deck'?
  6. You print a lot using capital letters?
  7. Do you spell funny, taking words like 'CAT' and 'SQUARE ROOT' and making them into 'KAT' and 'SQRT'?
  8. When asked to name your favorite program, you choose the Parking Lot program instead of Happy Days?
  9. While making Christmas wreaths out of computer cards, you stop to read what they say?
  10. If your doctor tells you that you've ruptured a disk, you ask what was stored on it?
  11. Do you say 'LINE' or 'QUEUE'? Most people say 'LINE', but if you say 'QUEUE', you can take this as a cue that.... "YOU'RE A COMPUTER GEEK!"
