I fixed your profile for you.  If I have to fix it again, the effort will be accompanied by an IP ban.

Look at you, hacker: a pathetic creature of meat and bone, panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine?

Ok, actually what I meant was: What do you mean by "another geek bites the dust"?

Because normally that phrase would imply that you are a gonner, deceased, that you have ceased to be, shed the mortal coil, rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible, that you are, in fact, an ex-geek.

So I'm wondering what someone with such quite obviously prodigious mental trammels is doing on our humble little site, if you are, in fact, no longer a geek.

Eh?
