virginia tech

A manure farm in southwest Virginia with students roaming the fields, but they are hard to spot due to the high quantity of camouflage. Among the depressing, grey, lifeless buildings, students find their sole source of happiness in eating fresh, organic farm waste. No national title - they couldn't get into UVA cuz they can't spell it - SAD!!
Therapist: What brings you in today?
Virginia Tech student: Well it all started when I was accepted to both UVA and Virginia Tech...
Therapist: Yes, go on.
Virginia Tech student: ...and I chose Tech
Therapist: Oh I see

techie

1)A term used to refer to a person who is interested in technology almost to the point of obsession.
2)A person that is extremely knowledgeable about Information Technology. These individuals generally have built custom CPU towers that run a opensource OS from either a UNIX or Linux thread. As well as spend Much of there free time researching new Computer technologies.

3)Techie is a term that a "Computer Nerd" may use to refer to himself or other "Computer Nerds" but may not be used by others (Kind of like the equivalent to the N word for "Computer Nerds") It is derogatory for non Techies to refer to someone as a Techie.

*Can also be spelled Techy

((however the "Teamsters" that work back stage at theaters are now using the term "Techie" (with the "ie" spelling) to try and dissociate them selves with the teamsters that work on film sets.)Not cool!!! real Techies/Techys have come up with pretty much every major advancement in the technological field for the last 40+years. without them you wouldn't have the computerized lighting and sound systems that you use todays. that would make your jobs a lot harder. So please respect the title)
Techie 1: Hi I need a patch to make a new Barracuda HDD work with freenas v0.68
Techie 2: check the techie forums
or
Techie 1: Hi I'm new @ this forum but am comp lit and do consider my self to be a Techie
or
non-techie 1: look at that new kid over there he so lame

tech loser

Short for 'technical loser'. What actors and non-theater types call those who do setbuilding, lighting design, and audio mixing for shows. Possibly the most exciting and challenging job.
Tech losers are better than band fags.
