I'm such a nerd

I was in the office on Friday and writing a training plan for one of our products. One of our engineers said that he had put something on paper so I had a look at and it was pretty good. So I asked him, "do you mind if I use some of this?"

He replied, "No, use whatever you like".

At which point I said, "Plagiarism for the win".

I got ribbed about it all day. I'm so ashamed.

don't worry I said lol once

Greenlizard0 · 20 Jul 2008 at 16:33

I said lol once too. I got stoned for it.

Sinny · 20 Jul 2008 at 16:36

I use noob all the time rather than using other swearies, I think its pretty common now anyway

*crosses fingers*

Not as bad as the guy on here who went into boots and asked for nvidea face cream.

This happens a LOT with the younger office people where I work. Whenever I need to go in the office I usually have to sit and wait for about an hour while someone prepares my documentation to take with me down south. Some of the things they come out with are unbelievable. They spend far too long on MSN/Myspace.

So far I've heard

Roffel (rofl?)
lol
noob (to refer to new office workers)
owned
pwned (it was a spelling mistake, and people are actually saying it)
leet
woot
woop
lame-o (lmao I think)

:rolleyes:

CaptainComedy · 20 Jul 2008 at 16:48

"dude" is not a geek term

I say lol after laughing. "hahahaaaaaahhh......lol"

SideWinder · 20 Jul 2008 at 17:05

I use 'lol' every so often.

We often roffled in our student house. It became a house joke rather than geekery.

Sorry, still geeky. In fact you get extra geek points for using it as an "in joke".

No, just means you had a house full of geeks

I used brb to a coworker once as a joke. He threw a pencil at me.

Trifid · 20 Jul 2008 at 17:22

I use fail quite a lot. Sometimes with epic attached depending on the severity of it.
