Here's where I luck out: I'm really computer illiterate.
I feel like an old person. I feel like, 'What is this technology?' I think there's some seven-year-olds who are more advanced than I am right now.
The word user is the word used by the computer professional when they mean idiot.
I'm trying to get through life without really knowing about computers, but I don't know if I am going to make it.
I think it is a shock to people to find out that MC Hammer is a super geek.
I kind of like being geeked up. I think that's the type of personality I have anyway.
I call myself a nerd all the time.
There's a common personality type to software developers - one I certainly fall into. We're more comfortable staring at a screen than staring into someone's eyes. Engineers can be brilliant in the workplace, and something less-than-brilliant everywhere else.
This has become a bugbear of mine: the difference between geek and nerd.
Guess what - I am one of the ONLY senators in the whole United States Senate that is computer literate!
I'm quite comfortable with being a geek. I've been a geek since high school.
No, I consider myself computer illiterate.
Geek? Sure, call me that. I take that as a compliment.
The character of the computer whiz is not one that would normally be associated with me.
I am a geek nerd who happened to have a temporary period of jockiness.
I think the phrase 'computer-literate' is an evil phrase. You don't have to be 'automobile-literate' to get along in this world. You don't have to be 'telephone-literate.' Why should you have to be 'computer-literate'?
I'm not really a computer man, to be honest. I check my emails every couple of weeks.
I'm still a geek on the inside, that's the important thing.
I'm a rock star among geeks, wonks, and nerds.
I'm a closet geek.
With the evolution of technology, kids really need to be computer-savvy.
I'm not tech savvy at all.
I'm geek royalty now.
I'm definitely the most tech-savvy in my family. My wife wouldn't have a clue, as far as getting the computer working. All of my kids, it's amazing. Like everybody's kids, they're more savvy than I am, probably.
I'm such a geek, and have always been a real nerd.
