I take offense to you implying that geeks have feelings! Everyone knows they are heartless eleetists who take pleasure in watching the pain of users.I worked really hard for years to remove all feelings of guilt, remorce, sorrow, and pity, all so I can be a proper BOFH. It's the sum of my lifes work. I'd write a useless PhD paper on it, but I can't spell, or properly use grammar, save for my pet peeve of the proper use of they're, there, and their.

PS:
PSS: Incase you users don't know what a BOFH is see: http://bofh.ntk.net/Bastard.html
PSSS: I really did mean the
PSSSS: Ignore the previous line
PSSSSS: Ignore the next line
PSSSSSS: Don't ignore the previous line
PSSSSSSS: I really think i did mean the
PSSSSSSSS: Doesn't the PS's cascading look kinda cool?
PSSSSSSSSS: I'm done now

I have a blue windbreaker jacket that looks like the FBI ones, but on the back it says BOFH. I'm serious. In the mid-90s there was a big Usenet (I think) deal where a bunch of sysadmin type people had them made. I have only ever worn it once. I feel like WAY too much of a geek with it on.
