Geek jokes - and other humors from the dork side

[Hunter]

So, I've started this thread for people like myself. I have, on occasion come across some fantastic humor, but seeing as you would have to have knowledge of some technical things to understand it, I don't often get to share these things.  SO, I thought I would share them here, if for no other reason than to give ZeroG and PK a laugh once in a while. 


So, for the first post. I read this on a guys sig and I still can't stop laughing.

"One day, aliens are going to come and kill the hell out of us for DDoSing their networks with this SETI crap."

A helicopter with a pilot and a single passenger was flying around above Seattle when a malfunction disabled all of the aircraft's navigation and communications equipment. Due to the darkness and haze, the pilot could not determine the helicopter's position and course to get back to the airport.

The pilot saw a tall building with lights on and flew toward it, the pilot had the passenger draw a handwritten sign reading "WHERE AM I?" and hold it up for the building's occupants to see.

People in the building quickly responded to the aircraft, drew a large sign, and held it in a building window. Their sign said "YOU ARE IN A HELICOPTER."

The pilot smiled, waved, looked at his map, determined the course to steer to SEATAC airport, and landed safely.

After they were on the ground, the passenger asked the pilot how the "YOU ARE IN A HELICOPTER" sign helped determine their position.

The pilot responded "I knew that had to be the Microsoft support building, they gave me a technically correct but entirely useless answer."

LOL

"There are 10 types of people in this world. Those who can read binary and those who can't."



"If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate."

"There are 10 types of people in this world. Those who can read binary and those who can't".

I never got that. I mean, I get what the joke is supposed to be but it just doesn't work. I used a binary translator to see what "2" and "two" are in binary and it sure isn't 10.

[ZeroG]

It's ok, like they said, there are 10 types of people. You must be in the group of those who don't. 

I don't know which binary translator you used, but 10 binary is definately 2 decimal.

Q: Let's say only you and dead people can read hex. If you teach your buddy how to read hex also, what do you all have in common?

A: You are all deaf.

Doesn't that guy look just like Bill Gates?

It's ok, Mus. I'm in the group that can't read binary too. All I did was copy what someone in another forum had in their signature, so that I could look smart in this topic. lol

That's why everyone should use Ubuntu!

I think Sean, one of Isara's volunteers, was planning on installing Ubuntu on his computer. He said there was a new version being released soon.

BTW Welcome to Isara, GabzillaSnuffles. And thanks a lot for your help and support!

Yeah the version of Ubuntu came out last Wednesday I believe. I don't use it, but my boyfriend does so I hear about it all the time.

And thanks for the welcome. I go to a school that is HUGE on social awareness so I'm glad I can do something to help by just being on this website. If I was older, I'd be out there doing stuff like Sean is, but seeing as I'm only in high school, I can help out from home and my community.

I'm glad this thread is getting such great replies. And by the way I'm not only in the 01 of 10 that can read binary, it seems I'm also deaf!

Well Gabbi, I signed up.

I love Ubuntu because of its underlying philosophy, and the overall fact that it's free of charge and bounding licenses. That, and it's totally productive. I would recommend checking it out.

I personally use the KDE variant, Kubuntu. Just a different look that I prefer.

So, two atoms are walking down a road together. One atom says to the other, "Hey, I think I've lost an electron!" The other atom asks, "Are you sure?" The first atom responds, "Yes, I'm positive!"

Okay, I got a chuckle out of that one ZeroG.

Logician: My wife just had a baby.
Collegue: Is it a boy or a girl?
Logician: Yes.

Is it alright if I throw in a philosophy joke?

Two behaviorists have just had sex. One turns to the other and says "That was great for you, how was it for me?"
