Separating the Geeks from the Non

My birthday present from Malada (see pic) arrived yesterday, so today I brought it into work to show it off.

I found I got three ranges of response:

- Polite noncomprehension: "That's nice."

- Luke-warmness: "I imagine that will be useful."

- Major geek-out: "That's soooo coool!"

I don't even have to guess which category most of my readers here would fall into, do I? :-)

Ah, ThinkGeek, how I love thee.

My brother gave Mr. Darcy the Hacker work shirt (http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts/coder/6620/). It's even better because before joining the ranks of the IT elite, Mr. Darcy was a mechanic...

..sorry, what were you saying? Got distracted by staring at the shiny.
