Language spoken by the geeks. Normaly consists out of large number of acronyms and technical terms. Speeds up conversation especialy when it takes place online.
1) Language spoken by geeks, such as computer programmers or tech support, which uses standard English words combined with technical jargon, such that the Geeks can understand each other, but to the end user, it sounds like a foreign language.
2) Use of standard English in a formatted text file, such as XML, such that it is difficult to understand, yet it sill uses standard English words, which only Geeks can understand
The guy from the help desk was here to fix your computer. I don't know what was wrong with it. Even though he told me what the problem was, he was speaking Geeklish, and I didn't understand a word.
A condition which results from an excess of literature abuse, overdosing in ICT and general love of gadgetry.
It can be terminal, and possibly damaging to your social activities.
In some cases, it can be highly contagious. Look out for tight items of clothing, and glasses which make the eyes appear larger than they seem.
To talk over people's heads using technical jargon that they're not going to understand. It's designed to equivocate others and to make them feel intellectually inferior. Especially when one is extremely irritated, aggravated and indignant. It's like the geek version of going ape shit, only in a more verbal, cerebral, subtle and restrained type of manner.
I could tell that Steve was going geekshit on Stan, Samantha and Mike this morning in the office. He was lecturing them with those big and unfamiliar words. They had no idea what he was talking about, making them feel stupid. It was his subtle and oblique way of showing how unhappy he was working with them.
