This travesty was the result of

1) Rialian upgrading my linux box so it now includes a DVD burner/CD RW/player that actually works without a problem in Linux and

2) Observing some sys admin super geeks at the club last night, pretending to be studly goths.

So ok, maybe they *were* studly goths, but I didn't get close enough to Check. This morning I was trying to describe them and said something like, "They were all dressed like mysterious hardcores, but they were obviously supergeeks". Then my mind did a horrible, horrible jump to Rick James' Superfreak (http://lyrical.nl/song/7261). From there, of course the next step was filking the entirety of Superfreek into The Thing That Should Not Be (dedicated to

rialian):

Supergeek (Apologies to Rick James)

He's a most essential dude
The kind you call all day and bother
He will never let your system down
Once you get him off the street, ow dude
He likes the boards in the case
He says that I'm his all-time favorite
When I make my move to the phone it's the right time
He's never hard to please

{Refrain}
That dude is pretty wild now
The dude's a super geek
The kind of dude you read about
In Linux magazine
That dude is pretty useful
The dude's a super geek
I really love to page him
and tell him when we'll meet
He's all right, He's all right
That dude's all right with me, yeah
He's a super geek, super geek
He's super-geeky, yow
Super geek, super geek

He's a very special dude
The kind of dude you want to know
From his head down to his toenails
Down to his feet, yeah
And he'll wait for me with cellphone and a pager
Box of disks in hand
Cause today my system's down
'Three's not too soon,' he says
'Just call me, I'll be waiting.'
When he gets here he's got hardware and screwdrivers
It's such a geeky scene

(refrain)

Super geek, super geek
That dude's a super geek
Ohhhhh
He's a most essential dude
The kind you call all day and bother
He will never let your system down
Once you get him off the street, ow dude!
Up system!
