You *might* be a modder/PR member if...

GrandpaNoob72 · 09-April-05, 08:54 PM

Once again, Grandpa likes to stir the pot and see what rises to the top...

A la "You might be a Redneck", what think we all would be some uncontestable indicators that you or someone you know are a hardcore modder/PR member?

Just to get the ball rolling (dunno how far it will go, but this *might* be fun...):

1) You go to just about every store in town to buy parts for your computer...*except* the local computer store...

2) You mod your car to match the color scheme/theme for your latest casemod...

Anyone else?

You wonder how a human head would look inside of your computer? Just an idea.....

Fatsobob · 09-April-05, 09:05 PM

You know more IP addresses than phone Numbers.

Dreyco · 09-April-05, 09:08 PM

If you have a room devoted to computer parts...

If you rabidly offer to take anyone's computer parts...

Spectrum · 09-April-05, 09:11 PM

You have a jpeg thumbnail for each family member
You have more MSN/AIM/YIM/ICQ contacts than phone numbers
Your bookmarks are portable
Every computer you access you borg
You look at disgust at people who think that they have the coolest computer because they have a premod
You know the exact c/w rating of your heatsink
Your TI-83+ graphing calculator is overclocked (just wanted to see if it would work

)

More when I'm not busy.

Your family rearranges their schedule around your modding activities.

GrandpaNoob72 · 09-April-05, 09:16 PM

YES!!! YES!!! This is *exactly* what I was hoping would rise from the modding pot when I stirred it!!!

LwrS10 · 09-April-05, 09:55 PM

.....you spend more time on Pimprig than you do with your girlfriend..............

Darksamurai · 09-April-05, 09:58 PM

Your computer has been modded... your friends are sick of you "suggesting" crap...

Now you modify everything else...

Things like cars, home electronics, and just about anything else that could possible run better and/or glow in the dark!

ADD: And your dreams include figuring a water-cooling system for a laptop that wouldn't suck a battery dry in three seconds!

You dream in terms of Dremel usage.

You 'offer' to mod friends, and family members computers.

You start keeping notes of all the excellent ideas you see, in hopes that one day you can use them.

Fatsobob · 09-April-05, 10:47 PM

Im guilty of the last one on foe's list.
Heh, im a pipe dreamer.

LwrS10 · 09-April-05, 10:56 PM

your computer desk matches the theme of your computer...............

No, but its got LEDs in it.

Rob · 09-April-05, 11:32 PM

You use a dremel to give yourself a tattoo....willingly.....

BigAkita · 09-April-05, 11:56 PM

Your computer area looks like an AlienWare high end computer vomited.

j-dogg · 10-April-05, 12:02 AM

If everyone at work thinks you're a hacker just because you carry a laptop

if you have ever used Bondo on anything other than your car

Especially if your car has rust holes on it

THRASHER2 · 10-April-05, 12:28 AM

When your wife tells you to do the Laundry you go to the Garge and work on your Project!
Someone tells you to the house...You clean your computer desk!

Iateronmly · 10-April-05, 12:36 AM

You might be a PR member if you've suggested to NewEgg they should offer a registry service.
