Ah, the REAL geeks use stuff like -

There's no place like 127.0.0.1 (or, if you are ultra geeky and use IPV6, There's no place like ::1)

There are only 10 types of people in the world - those who understand binary, and those who don't!

In a world without walls and fences, who needs Windows and Gates?

and others of course!
