You know what makes me really happy? The fact that, since I was a kid, it’s become socially acceptable to be a geek. I think there’s two reasons for this – first of all, i think there’s a hell of a lot more of us in the world these days. Secondly, we make everything work. Being technophobic is really now on a par with being illiterate, but there’s still plenty of people that can’t work their phone, their video recorder of choice, or anything on a pc; this, of course, leads people of my age to the utter hilarity of the sort of people that used to make my life a living hell at school now being forced to rely on my assistance for even very simple things on a computer. Ha ha ha, bullies – that time you spent mocking me for having a pc could have been better spent learning so you didn’t have to ask me how to change a data type on excel. Not that i’m bitter.
