Geeky and I Know It

In a life full of loads of geeky things - seriously, though, I'm a bit of a nerd - I may have done the geekiest thing I've ever done this evening.  And this is from someone who's been to ComicCon.  I attended a Hacker Trivia evening at a bar.  Yep, you heard that right.  Here's the thing.  I'm not sure if you've noticed this or not, but I know NOTHING about computers. Oh yeah, I also don't drink...

There are days I can barely figure out Facebook.  However, I work with lots of computer nerds and apparently this is what they do for fun - drink and decipher code. At one point, the entire room laughed at one of the team names.  I still have NO idea why it was funny.  I've never been so confused.  Seeing as I work for a tech company, I thought the majority of questions would go over my head, but I'd at least figure out a few.  Yeah, no.  There wasn't a single question I could have even guessed an answer to.

But I have to admit, it was pretty fun.  The room was full of people who were super smart and super excited about all things computer-y.  And honestly, what's more fun than hanging with people that are enjoying something fully?!
