Hypno-Geek?

[Simple Guy]

There are geeks of all stripes and denominations. Were someone to be
a "hypno-geek," what might that say about use or misuse of the processes
of the professed hypno-interested "geek?"

Simple Guy, who isn't "so much cooler on line" (as the words to a very
cool country song and video go). :)

Perhaps being a hypno-geek would be a great occupation if one wanted to work for a carnival biting the heads off of mice, rats, etc. May take a lot of practice in self-hypnosis to do this as an occupation.

Also a hypno-geek would be very ackward socially sooo it would be impossible for said hypno-geek to have rapport with potential clients.

Would I ever let a "hypno-geek" loose on the public? NEVER!!

Lastly, do teachers still teach English in schools? LOL!!

Stay well,
Pood :cool:

Hi Poodle,

Well, computer geeks aren't restricted to carnival work (and those
stunts would be shut down by the Humane Society) and a possible
hypno equivalent wouldn't be restricted to pros (who would have
a problem with the social awkardness when working with clients). ;)

I hope this post didn't raise your dander. About English, I intentionally
used a hyphen because I coined the word and thought it would be
easier to read with the hyphen. :)

Geek is properly used when referred to pc experts.

Raise my dander? Surely you jest! Pood :)

Hi Poodle,

I was with such a pc expert (not a client), who referred to himself
(not in a bad way) as a geek. I then asked him if he's geeky enough
to be able to do such and such. It wasn't intended, nor received,
as an insult.

You are "with" such an expert a lot of the time. His name is Don and I would put his computer knowledge against anyone's. In fact, he even has taught the subject at university level. Our Don is a man of multi-talents. When it comes to the pc world he goes from Mac's to Windows to Cisco without the blink of an eye. I quite imagine Linux is in there somewhere too.

We have some "kids" here called the "Geek Squad" and they really know less than I do about what's going on. This is also the first year that the College will teach web design. A wee bit behind the times????

Gotta make some CD's for clients so later my friend,

Pood :)

Geek.. One who is narrowly focused on one subject to the exclusion of the development of the whole person.
I doubt there is such a thing as a HypnoGeek, since hypnosis covers development of the whole person, even when done to the exclusion of other methods. On the other hand, what do I know?...:)
