There is a saying similar to this but I think this on is better. But think about it. Geeks can do far more damage when you piss them off. The world runs off computers and geeks control that world.
I wonder what would happened if one day all the geeks of the world decided to go on strike. Think of it all geeks shutdown there works. Lets see what would happened. All nuclear plants shutdown. Heck the power grid. The phone system. The internet. all designed by geeks. The television system. Satellites. The stock markets servers shutdown. All geeks walk out side and demand an apology from the world. It would be great. Then the world would finally realize we are important. If we were gone people would care. We would raise our flag a towel to be more precise and conquer the world. Or leaders would rise and control all. Think Steve Jobs and Bill Gates president. Linus was not born in the us so he would rule europe. Then we would get some really top notch programmers to run asia. Australia would be run by peter Jackson II know he from new zealand but who cares. Then other rulers would be chosen over time by secure electronic voting. But there would be a rule you must be a geek. Proving your geek test would be done by the high council of geeks.
But this will never be because we are the meek. But or day will come. Note to self check to see if it actually could be geek.
