To behave in an overtly geeky manner, esp. if this behavior is a departure from the norm for you (e.g if you are a closeted geek)
On Saturday night I settled in with a big pile of junk food and caffienated beverages to watch the whole original Star Wars trilogy (Empire twice, 'cause it's the best) while reading slashdot and planning my next case mod. But don't tell anyone I totally geeked out

Alteration of objectivism.
This word originated in 1999 on a free ProBoards forum when some diehard randroid came and put a quote relating to Objectivism in her signature. This caused ads for Objectivist dating/sportswear/etc. to appear on every thread---the administrator quickly added "objectivism" to the censored word list and made it so every time she used this word it would become "objectivitism."
Since then, the word has come into widespread use in our community and probably others as well; where I live, you frequently hear people referring to "objectivitism" or "objectivitists" when referring to Ayn Rand's philosophy or her followers, respectively.
