Get the techie mug.Either:
1.) A college-educated-20-something-year-old* who works in the Tech Industry Google, Facebook, Uber, JUUL... and, therefore, makes a direct impact on the quality of life in San Francisco, CA via:
a.) gentrification, b.) white-washing of local micro/cultures, c.) inflated & unsustainable housing market and prices
*Techies can, and overwhelmingly are, older than 20-something, however those 30yo+ techies oftentimes live outside of San Francisco proper- in the East & South Bays, where housing prices are not /as/ extreme as they are in the city.
/Techie is oftentimes used as a derogatory term. Techies do, actually, use the word to bash other techies who are on the extreme end of the "techie" spectrum./

1.) "...yeah, I mean, I'd love to invite Chad to the Art Gallery in Oakland on Friday, but I'm kind of embarrassed to be associated with a techie around my circle of artist-friends."
2.) "...and basically, I just wanted something in my life that was completely alien to the life I lived in Ohio, so I told Life to friggin yeet my yote-sack and just up and moved to San Francisco. Some of my friends work in tech and the endless possibilities for opportunity got me thinking- maybe this chapter of my life is when I transition from a 'Hipster' to a 'Techie,' maybe I'm a Techster? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. But, either way, at least I'll never be a Trust Fund Techie..."

Get the Techie Guy mug.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.

Bob: I can't! I CAN'T do this anymore!!! *runs off crying*
New Techie: Where is Lisa anyway?
Techie 1: She's with the actor dude.
New Techie: Ohhhh...
Techie 1: See new techie, this is why we don't like it when two techies date, it's techie incest and it's wrong, it messes everyone up.
New Techie: Ohhhh, I will listen to you, oh master!
Note: Techie incest is not really incest. - Jessica
