Lost... and finally found again.

One of those things that really needs to be passed around more often. I was quite disappointed when it was no longer showing up at the old URL, but I'm very glad to see that someone else archived it so I can bookmark it again. :)

Five Geek Social Fallacies

Unfortunately, it's not limited to just geeks. #4 seems to be the one with the widest distribution... which is sad, since it's probably the one most people grow out of first.

Happy Emotional Codependence Day, everyone! :D

I was kinda going with the cultural norm definition of 'geek', but yes, it is something that most people go through at some point in their lives, and hopefully outgrow. It's the folks who still cling to the fallacies that need a look at the page.

Well, that and I'm pretty sure that all of humanity could use a refresher from time to time. :)

I just got back from Paris; I'm sure there are approximately 61 million "culturally normal" Frenchpersons in line ahead of you. :)
