Techie

People who work on the technical aspects of theatre; (i.e. Lighting, Sound, Scenic, Costumes, Video)this includes either design or implementation of any of the preceding fields. Quite often underpaid and overworked. Actors typically believe these people in particular to be the "gnomes" or "fairies" that come during the night and make their set appear. Techies can be seen backstage lounging on the fly rail.

Actor1: "Who is that guy sitting over there by all those rope thingies?"

Actor2: "Oh, he's just a techie."

techie stupid

techie stupid- is a word that is used to describe yourself or someone else that is extremely challenged and unable to properly use modern technology i.e. cell phones, ipods, computers gaming systems, etc. Some one who can never quite figure out "applications" and has to have help to start a facebook page. Some one who has to use their child as the IT/AV boy and has to call upon them to have help with all technology possibly even the Dvd player and who is still wondering "what the heck is blue ray?" Some one who wonders how modern life has left them behind and you think twitter is the sound a birdie makes.

After I showed grandmother how to retrieve her message off of her cell phone phone she is no longer techie stupid. - or - I still can not figure out how to down load music on my ipod I am so techie stupid.

Texties

besties (best friends) who send each other an obscene amount of text messages and quite possibly communicate more often via text than in person or over the phone

Scott and I are texties, so we can talk about our friends while they're in the same room without them ever knowing!

Techie

One who is involved with all Technical aspects of a show/film/production, including but not limited to: Lighting Design/programming/implementation; Set Design/Construction; Prop Design/Construction; Costume design/construction; etcetra
Commonly known to wear all black, Join IATSE, and generally to have rather sick senses of humor. (Warning to all actors, they have Gaffers tape, they will stick you to the wall)
Note: The Stage/Production Manager can be considered to be a Techie, for they are considered "god" on set, the reason I set this aside is because they are not involved with IATSE, but with Equity.

the lighting designer Is a Techie.
the actors are most definitely not.
