Haha sometimes PC people are defined as:
  • Nerds
  • People with no Life
  • No Friends
  • Wear Huge Glasses
  • Not Cool
  • Not confident
  • 'dumb?'
  • and all that stuff.

So I DO NOT AGREE! I would say I'm exactly the opposite!

I
  • am not a Nerd
  • I have a good social life and I go out every weekend.. go to discos etc...
  • I have lot's of friends
  • I do wear glasses, but cool nice ones
  • I'm cool and live life day by day.. extremely relaxed and take life the way it is
  • Extremely confident with myself.. although sometimes shy (rarely)
  • I'm not dump.. I would say I'm very smart compared to other people

AND I consider myself as a very interesting person, geek, Technological, a person that makes friends easily and NOT afraid to talk to girls.

So being the opposite of what people define PC people.. does that make me a non-PC guy? What is your side? like me or the classical one (the ones that people define) or you have your own style?

**With PC Guy I mean people like us.. that have an online and offline life, webmasters, good in computers, capable of programming.. etc...**

Stereotypes are so broad in range that it would be hard to find one person who has all of those qualities above (although I'm sure they exist). Most of the IT/IS people I have met are none of those. However, yes, you are still a PC guy.

to say the truth I never thought of that... but now that I'm thinking I think I would picture what people say... but not because I think so, but because that is what people say.

Anyways.. are you one of what people describe?

EDIT:- I was surfing around and came across this funny flash game


Try to guess if the guy in the photo is s serial killer or a programmer.. kinda funny.

I read an awesome article on Digg a few days ago that crushed the "programmer stereotype." I'll be damned if I can find that article now...

Edit:
Ahh here we go The Programmer Dress Code
