The accidental techie is usually a person who understands computers or office equipment better than most in the organization, and can figure out how to adapt the knowledge to the organization's needs. This is the go-to person for technology issues at an office that doesn't have or can't afford tech support.

When two techies (straight, gay, lesbian, whatever) are in a relationship, which is usually frowned upon by their fellow techies and tech directors. Why? Look at the example.
Bob and Lisa are techies and are dating....

2 weeks later in tech..

Bob: *crying* wahhhh, I can't concentrate, I can't believe we broke up, she went with THAT actor wahhhhhh.

Techie 1: Ughh, Bob shut up and start working, we have to finish this set! It will never be done by tomorrow if you keep crying!

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!

A term used by theater kids. Techie incest is when two techies date.

Note: It is NOT incest. It's just frowned upon by fellow techies and some theater directors.

1)Techies is the Plural form of Techie
2)A term used to refer to people who are interested in technology almost to the point of obsession.
3)People that are 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.

4)Techies is a term that "Computer Nerds" may use to refer to themself 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 others as Techies.

*Can also be spelled "Techys"

((however the "Teamsters" that work back stage at theaters are now using the term "Techies" (ie spelling not y) 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)

a person who is quite good with computers and other technical things. also rather unattractive, hence the 'minger' part. techie mingers often work in the tech support department of a company, and know far more than is normal about the ins and outs of servers, internet connections, firewalls, etc.
