You Know You're a Geek When... 

I was in the lunch area today with some friends of mine here, when the following conversation occurred. Granted it's not an exact transcript, but I'm hitting the high points:

Me: So are you guys going to the UWM game tonight?
* Nice looking woman walks by *
Coworker: Oh-One
Me: Huh?
Coworker: I never explained our rating system? It's based on binary.
Me: You have a rating system for women based on binary? I hope for your sake that you don't admit this to any women, or you'd never get laid.

That's a whole level of geekness that I didn't even know existed.

Update: In the spirit of full disclosure, I should probably share the rest of the conversation:

Coworker: Wait. You have a binary clock in your cube and that binary t-shirt and you're calling us geeks?
Me: Touche.
