Agreed. Euthanizing.

yes , I'd say we either kill them all ... :D

amm , actually try reading "The Food Of The Gods" and "Men Like Gods" by H. G. Wells ... it's very interesting

Eugenics anyone?

you'll be sorry when you have to get out of your car in the freezing rain to pump your own gas... instead of having the man with no highschool education do it for you

Is there any reason to let non-geeks live?

no.

well for entertainment perhaps. and other purposes. are their really any hot geek women? if so, could you direct me:p
we could keep nongeeks as pets or something like that.

Eugenics anyone?

This is such a pathetic thread. People think that being a geek is 'cool' nowadays, so they pose, and are nothing but bad actors. Not even genuine ones.

Even worse, they revel in this foolishness.

Robots. Not that geeks would use gas for long anyway.

Non-geeks should live because robots can't do anything. If we created a robot, it would obviously be smarter than any non-geek, so it wouldn't go around saying "Duh, duh duh". Since most non-geeks do that, it makes us geeks feel even better than usual. One, we know that we are better than them, and two, they can really add to the uberness by going around and acting really insanely stupid. And there are also the jobs the require very little thinking, which the non-geeks take.

I meant to say that robots can't do everything.

I kinda` agree with Fen ... geeks won't use gas for long ... I'm working on converting a 1978 Trabant to work with H ... I have some problems with storing the H though ... it's not very functional yet , however , when it will be ready I will have a very cheap eco car - I have built a windmill that gets the hydrogen out of rain water so the fuel will be completly free (as long as the system doesn't breack down :D )

Do you think farmers are geeks? They supply you with all your food you greedy scum.;)

Can a non-geek realise that he is a non-geek ?
When I watch that thread, and especially Fen, I don't think so...

Farmers are one of the few sects of humanity that are worse than geeks...

<i>"Why should anybody who is unable to grasp math and physics be allowed to live?"</i>

Survival of mankind...nobody wants to hump a nerd. :D

Yes exactly, nobody does want to hump a nerd, and clearly thats saying something. Evolution is trying to weed nerdism out of the human species. It mustn't be a beneficial trait despite the fact nerds think it is.

<i>"It mustn't be a beneficial trait despite the fact nerds think it is."</i>

Reproduction, the purpose of life, doesn't require much thought.

Ok, so what exactly is a nerd?

I have a friend who is, ahem... kinda slow. Nice guy. Dresses ackwardly, and comes from an overprotective family.

He is in all of the low streams at school, lacks creativity - yet has an undying enthusiasm for things that don't even matter. Example-- the other day, he got up late, and RAN to school because he did not want to miss a second of typing class! Apparantly, they were starting a new unit. He wont be able to get into uni, or maybe even college. Does that make him a nerd? Or not?

I have another friend,-- very bright, can grasp concepts rather easily, and has good street smarts. He is in low streams too (though not the lowest) and doesn't really care too much about school. He could easily go off to university or college - but doesn't want to pursue that kind of a life. Is he a non-nerd?? Does he deserve to die, -even in the most joking of senses?

I think a lot of people who consider themselves nerds, or that can identify with this kind of a thread are pretentious, or have some kind of a personality disorder. Really, I don't mean to insult anyone, but it's the truth. How you make it in the outside world revolves around your perceptions and what you make of those. I think my second friend is going to do a lot better, simply because he understands this. --And this chicks understand this, too. That's why they like the 'perfect', well rounded guys.

EDIT:: BTW, I can honestly understand this because I was once a pretentious little snot, too. Just like the people I seem to be bashing. It's just not healthy anymore to be that way. I'm aware of that and it's changed for the better.

i was thinking about a similar thing the other day. and the answer im afraid, is that the human race absolutely and positively needs morons, idiots and otherwise stupid people

ya see, theres just some things a geek will never do. you guys here couldnt run a planet; no offence, but it would fall apart in days. fire would break out, power would be disrupted and eventually nearly everything would be destroyed, or fail, if we didnt have morons who were prepared to do the shitty jobs, for minimum wage, that are so essential to the functioning of modern society.

i'd like to see anyone reason otherwise. and then go clean the sewers after they have finished their argument.

and heres another thought.. you take great care of yourself, look after yourself and avoid danger if possible, cos after all, it might kill you. yet, the guy who fitted the brakes to you car, probably left school to go work in his local tyre firm, with zero qualifications and about enough brain cells to swing a hammer
this is why i work on my own cars, and noone else touches them :)

Fen, has somebody who didn't seem to be a qualified physicist insulted you recently? Does your soul still hurt? Do you feel you live in a hostile environment alone with your computer and your books? Is that it?

I have an interesting link here which might be useful:
http://home.att.net/~eugenics/lynn.htm

Though I don't necessarily agree with everything that's said, I'll point out that it demonstrates something very useful. That is, that even the highly intelligent can do the 'shitty jobs', and it's less a matter of intelligence, but other qualities.

You don't have to be a nerd to be smart, and you don't have to be smart to be a nerd. Of course we'll need people of different qualifications, but this whole joke argument on the necessity of non-nerds is just pathetic.

You'll no longer be able to make quick comments and enjoy the blank look on their faces as the point goes right over their head and they sit burning out a goodly amount of their IQ trying to work out what you just said.

- I still say kill them all - I am not quite a nerd really - I have really low grades 'cause I don't give a f ruit about school and the girls love me because I'm tall dark and handsome , and I can make fun of the teachers - ah , well , not that handsome but I can't complain

Fine, keep a few in zoos. Problem is eventually they won't even understand our language (which will be much more advanced). Then eat them.

If I ever feel geekishness casting it's cruel shadow over my perfection I just look into a mirror and all is well again.

If you realy want to kill non-geeks, you should do it with all non-graduated.

Is it done ?
So how many of you are still alive now ?

You guys are fucking dicks.

No, seriously! :bugeye:

Who would bring the pizza?
Who would make the soda?

Let them live.

Let them live you commie bastards! lol.

If you fight the idiots, they'll drag you down to their own level and beat you with experience :P

I don't understand a lot of math and scince (I do have a good grasp of the basics. I just feel no need to go further than that becuase I have no need to). If if you do kill off morons, people like me will help them :p

that is silly , geeks have very hmm "colorfull" personalities and great humour - oh yeah , can I run for vice-leader ? I know how to make pancakes (the french kind not the stupid thick ones the americans do)

what's the classification of a geek or a nerd? i mean there are quite a few girls in my class who just study and study, a few guys as well. i mean we had a small test in julius caesar about 5 pages that's all....who'll study? all you have to do is read the question and recollect what the guy says in class. anyway...i overheard one of these girls telling the other..''i woke up at 4 and started STUDYING.'' then i thought these guys were insane.

i mean the funny part is these guys study all year round and when the time comes for the final exams at the year end, me and my friends just study the day before. i mean what is physics, chem. and maths really? application of concepts. i just learn the basic concept and apply it. these guys who just study and study can't do a sum which they've never seen before. i think that's just pathetic. so...anyway, are these guys nerds or not? and if they are...DEATH TO ALL NERDS/GEEKS :D

Actually, it's quite the opposite. A geek is intelligent, and you basically gave the definition of intelligence--being able to apply your knowledge to new situations. Geeks get good grades without studying usually (if they want to bother to). Interesting that the girls are the ones that have to try so hard to "get it". Females really have no place in the future.

"Females really have no place in the future." - of course they do ... some of them are not THAT silly and some of them are really just too ahem ... cute or something :D

One final thought we wouldn't have to kill the stupid just let them die of their own inability to survive (do you realize how few women drivers there'd be without automatic transmissions - White Knuckle Pilots without Auto-Pilots?). That would solve the farmer problem (God bless em, do you really want to dig in the dirt?!?)

One good point; if you kill all the stupids it would really drain the politician pool.

you need non-geeks for certain things. assembly work comes to mind. carpenters... construction workers... etc. please, don't kill them. i don't want to have to kill my own chickens and stuff.

farming is the most important job in teh world. hands down.
a geek is a guy whose obessed with computers, math, science, and physics...im not bashing them or anything but to me their conversations are boring....besides geek's would lose agasint "average people" bcuz "average people" outnumber geeks like 20 to 1

Actually Edgar, it depends on how "information oriented" that farmer's business is. Some farmers use GPS and computers and such to increase crop yeilds, etc. I would imagine that as technology progresses, a farmers dependency on information access will increase as more infomation yields more analysis yields better problem solving capability yields increased crop yields. ;)

No... they need tractors, and electricity, and food processors and many other things that depend on "computers, math, science, and physics", which you said is what geeks do. I'm using your definitions here.

Do you have cows, chickens, beef... and do you make your own tables, your bed, your house... No ??? Unbelievable !!! How do you survive ???
If you are a geek (and I think so) you would not live your boring life without non-geeks.

Have a nice day :cool:

Were there any geek 150 years ago ? No... So how did the farmers produced enough food for everyone ? I think (but it's just a theory) that humans are able to live without GPS and computers. I know that it's crazy...

In fact the good question would be : can we live without geeks ? (Of course :D we do !)

the word" geek (http://hdd.rox.com/?entry=geek) " is a fairly recent Americanism, derived from the Middle Low German "geck," which was supposed to a sound crazy people made.

"Geck" became "gek" in Dutch, meaning madman or fool. It found its way into American slang as "geek," a guy who does really gross and disgusting things in the side show at the carnival. The classic act for the carnival geek was to bite the head off of a chicken.

Eventually the word was used to refer to anyone who was gross or undesirable, be it through lack of hygiene, lack of social skills, or some other repulsiveness.

Been there, liked France and the French, sorry they're taking a bit of a hit these days.

Most I met yearned for the freedom we had, while hating our government almost as much as we do!-)

,,,,,,"Do you have cows, chickens, beef... and do you make your own tables, your bed, your house... No ??? Unbelievable !!! How do you survive ???"

Actually, we do, am in a remote part of the USA, where we have all the above plus Deer, Bear, Turkey and great hunting, and I DO thank God (nature and the creator) that someone is willing to do the chores. They have frequently thanked me for doing the Tech stuff.

And it IS true they can survive without me or my likes, but there is more to life than surviving.

Oh, and yes, we do have a woodworking and metal shop in the barns; turning things and welding is kinda' geekish though, don't you know? And, Oh, Oh my, my principal degree is as an Architectural Engineer, so did build a few houses when I had time between larger projects.

,,,,,"If you are a geek (and I think so) you would not live your boring life without non-geeks."

My life, Designing & Building, flying my own plane across continents, and sailing my own yacht across oceans, parachuting into hostile places, shooting the bad guys and teaching others how to do it to gain their freedom, would not be considered boring by many, you must live one hell of an exciting life (are you sure I might not be your father?-)

But YES I guess I am a Geek although I prefer the title Hacker - in the early days that was a compliment.

And you "Have a nice day :cool: "

Your post is hard to read (bad use of quotes...).

Anyway, if your life is the way you described it : "Sorry !". It's not boring... You could be called a hacker but not a geek ! IMO a geek would not do what you do. He would only think, use his computer and be proud to be more intelligent than the "non-geeks" (they are wrong... they just have more scientific knowledges)

You're right, I have a problem using this text editor, when I split the quote as I did the [B] gets sticky, tried duplicating the code to close the bold as would do in other editors but it didn't work.

If you're thinking about those who don't have money to buy food in our cities or those of Africa, Asia... that don't have food, then it was that way and it's still (whatever you'll say) !
Now, "our" farmers can produce enough food for "our" countries without computers (I don't speak about the third world...) and they did it before.

Have you seen a modern farm :bugeye: . I'm not talking about Uncle Jenkins acre of corn, I'm talking about where our food is really grown. I'd like to see those places without engineers and computer people.

Well you dont absolutely need engineers and computer technicians for farms...it's just a little luxury

Depends on how you look at it. I mean, if you're talking hypothetically you're right.. but if you're not.. then you're wrong. The problem is that you fail to account for the benefits of increased efficiency on a market. If Farm A has computers and engineers and farm b has bill jo bob hyucktard.... it's likely that computers and engineers will be 200% as efficient (just making up numbers really) as Mr. hyucktard. In that case, Mr. Hyucktard cannot compete in the market that he's in and will be driven out because no one will buy his over priced produce. Dig?

it is a luxury to have all the computer equipment and stuff on a farm. Have you seen a farm in third world countries? No sophisticated equipment at all yet loads of grain and crop is produced. The efficiency of the farm will definitely be improved by using modern methods, but some people can't afford that... an it isn't essential to ensure the survival of a farm anyway.

I think that the geeks should try to fight the rest of the world to see who gets to dominate the planet - the losers will be systematically hunted down and either taken into slavery or something else not very pleasant

i hope the people that said all people that arent geeks should die are joking because thats just wrong:bugeye:

I will lead the charge against the geeks. *puts on headdress.* Death to the cowards... who's with me?

Sheesh, talk about selfish etc. Non geeks have as much right to life as geeks. simple, huh? Geeks wont ever take over because of the machiavellian non-geeks, or the musclemen non geeks. is it necesasry to grasp maths and physics to drive, or to appreciate a tree, or to work in a call centre?
I agree with airavata, but would say, death to the geeks who want to rule the world. The rest of them in their niches can stay.

The "non" geeks would win just because of sheer numbers.

Hey, Edgar, funny you should say that, hasnt anyone noticed that half their intelligent, well educated or getting on fine friends dont want to have children? Meanwhile all the non-geeky types have several. Whos keeping the species going?

They should be allowed to live, because who decides who gets to live and who gets to die? What do we do, round them all up into cattle cars and put them into camps, and systematically gas them out in large numbers? Sounds kind of like something else in history I vaguely remember reading about.

No one should be exterminated for who they are, everyone has something to contribute. If you think you are really part of some superior elite, then you're sorely mistaken. Have a little humility.

Besides...somebody has to haul our garbage, pump our gas, etc. ;)

im a geek. im also a sycho anarchy phreak.
i bought this modem w/ cash i got selling nh grenades to local punks.

il be glad to help. stupid people suck. but u gotta admit there good for taking advantage of...

im not a super genius geek. i like computers and programing but i also have many trates of a norm.
but if for no other eson it will further human evoplution.
so whadya say? come on! u rly smart nerds can use your intelect to design the masive amounts of super weapins wel need to destroy the lamers. then we somewhat lower geeks will be glad to help in the construction and use of them. if all eles fails il teach you hi geeks to use sniper rif;les and well pic em off 1 by 1.

btw. i think we need clasifications.

hi geeks- super smart. but not too practical on the battle field. these geeks are good for designing and thinking and stratagizing. sry to offend any1 but there not too good at carying things out tho.
geek- smart. not so smart hes too bussy thinking up formulas to kill some1 tho. good on the battle field but more at camanding the lower geeks.
low geek- above avrage inteligence. can comunicate with other levle geeks, unlike norms, and shares there hatred of sub geeks. yet does not have the super brain the hier onse do. an esential norm-eliminating soldiar. in the new world we will have lower jobs. but were still too good for the agriculture and construction. thats for robots and ensllaved norms.
phreak- not a geek. just hier than a norm. not interested in comps and stuff but still perfectly happt to see the end of the norm erha.


so if any1 is interested in actualy doing this my email is gretinking@yahoo.com. we will descuss the plans and where to attack.

btw the geeks alone cant do it. i hate to say it but most geeks simply arent capable of the kind of carnage that is nesisery. and besides, there just arent enugh geeks int he world to kill of the norms. that why we need the phreaks. there those sychos that arent geeky and super smart but are still above norms. i know many phreaks and iom sur etheyl help! if for no other reson than the opertunity to kill some norms and lamer. lol.

ok people! get phrends and fellor geeks! we need allies and help! if we are to do this we need numbers. geeks are good w/ numbers, no? we need flesh. human flesh to feed the rebelion!

conserning the human breeding isue.
no geeks arent good breeders. its a sad fact.
but hey! were geeeks! we can simple take tisue from the best geeks and genetichaly breed new geeks! and for sex there will be the norm slaves.
and because we want the kids to grow into good geeks like us wel have to make sure they are taght to be. and of course geeks are horrible parents.
has any1 read 'the cure'? if u had u know where im going. all the kids will be in group schools where they will be taught by computers and robots. and there will of course a norm chaind up for them to play w/.

yo, that was the best post ever

Let the two sides make their stand.

the non-geeks will dissapear slowly in time anyway so I think we should speed things up
a true geek can survive anywhere and in almost any conditions - but maybe I have a different definition of a geek , I'm not from the USA or UK so I might have not got the right ideea but a true geek is a person who is capable of logical thought - I call myself a geek although I'm not very good at maths and I have never studied for school more then 2-3 hours/week during the last 4 years. I still have better marks then most classmates even if I get low grades for written homework (I never write my homework)... I am usually very lonely because I have a very personal way of living my life - I do things others think are silly or impossible , or a waste of time :
- I like to skip classes and go rowing on a nearby lake - my friends like to skip classes and do nothing or drink in a nearby bar (even 5 year olds can get alcohoolic drinks around here)
- I'm always building thinks like polistiren boats (I am trying to build a fiberglass canoe now), windmills , remote controlled "thinghies" , I even built the table I'm sitting at right now ...
almost everything I do or say makes people say : "Are you stupid or something" or "Yeah right , you need expensive equipement to do that" ... or "You can't put a jet engine on a bike"(it was actually a homebuilt pulsejet engine)

I did-.

Us non-geeks would kick ass :D

I don't give a fac about being popular it's the times stupid people get in my way that I get really pissed off (not that I'm some kind of genius but some people are really stupid , even most people that post on sciforums are so dum they can't put 2 and 2 togather)

If you're not popular it's because you're hanging around the wrong people.

Word to the wise: Never stay where you're not appreciated... (but make sure that wherever you end up, there is like.. oxygen and food and stuff)

and if that not possible take a pen and draw smiley faces on your fingers... look now you have 10 new friends!

My point is not wether it's a popularity thing, Infact I've never in my life been concerned with popularity and I strive to hold a low profile. My point is that there is no reason to fatisize about a world where geeks rule and non-geeks are thier pets. That's just silly.:D
If it's all about how stupid 'non-geeks' are, then welcome to the human race, you are no better. Pretty arrogant realy to assume that intelectual supremicy is defined by an affinity for programing language!

I will be hated for saying that, but I don't care, you're all quite silly.:p

u r rite. knowing how 2 prog rly is no t agood sign of intelect. but it does help show that they are capable of proper thought.

now if any of u are serius i am perfectly willing to use this as an all out excuse to kill a few thousand people.
so if any1 is rlly interested or wants to flame me (dont even try. i have a ver extensive knowledge of virii...) email me at gretinking@yahoo.com i will give you some rpgs w/ amo a few pacs of grenades and a couple months of training. then we shal release our new geek-soldiers unto this forsaken planett!
really. wouldnt that just rock? i mean get all the geeks together. build a huge super army of the smartest beings alive. and then crush the pathetic lower humans beneath our mighty feet!
com eon! were all smart people, we geeks. and we could easily acomplish this if we would get over our inabilty to work w/ others and all just march side by side to bring about the death of all norms and lamers. i say we start w/ the 3rd worl countries. just to get some soldiers. there are lotsa poor people willing to kill 4 food. and we can give them the lower jobs when were done. then we can simply launch a few nukes at africa and south america then take over eastern uerop and mexico while theyr recovering from radiation poisoning.
all we need is about 500 people and aproxomatly 2 tons of tnt. we can use it to get the nuclear material from any number of dumping grounds. should be a piece of cake!

or alternativly we can scrape together our funds and buy a small country kick out the natives and proclaim it geek land! w/ our superior skillz we would quickly becom ethe richest nation on earth! we would then usae our economic might to buy the rest of the earth and once we own it all we can simply execute the norms as we see fit.

You won't be hated for that, you'll just be considered as a slow learner!

Hehe.. the premise of this thread is obviously a joke. I suppose if you're not a native english speaker that might be hard to see.. but I assure you that only morons would really want to try to kill off non-geeks! (though from this point forward in this thread I'll likely vehemently deny that I've said this such that I can participate in the silliness)

I guess I am a slow lerner then!
I was fully aware of the humorous intent of this thread. But as I am a boring stiff, I have no sense of humour. So I simply had to bother a bunch of people just having a laugh.

BTW I guess you could say I am a native speaker. English being my preliminary language of choice. So I have no excuse.:bugeye: Quite observative of you if you picked up the fact that I could be non-native, either my English has degenerated terribly in 2 years of neglected lingual stimulus, or I have somehow revealed my nationality in a previous post. Either way, :D.

The geeks are the rulers of the planet......kill all the rest....:D

:( look slike i'm gonna get euthanized

2 words, manual labor

...and you nerds and geeks wonder why you guys get the shit beat out of you in school! Geeze! :)
