Joe on the February 14th, 2008 If you’re geeky like me, you already know how to geekily say “I Love You”, but what if you’re not and you want to say “I Love You” in a geeky way to your geeky loved one? Don’t worry. I’m here to help.
1. Send an e-card
Send your loved one an electronic greeting card via Blue Mountain or Hallmark.
2. Buy them something extra geeky
Show your smushy-face huney-buns you know what they like by getting them something from Think Geek. If they’re truly geeky, they’ll love it.
3. Say it in Klingon
I’m not a Trekkie, so don’t ask me, but I’m sure there’s a way to say “I Love You” in Klingon.
4. Better yet, say it in Binary
010000100110010100100000011100110111010101110010011001
010010000001110100011011110010000001100100011100100110
100101101110011010110010000001111001011011110111010101
110010001000000100111101110110011000010110110001110100
01101001011011100110010100101110
5. Do it with Code
Grab the code for your geek’s favorite programming language here and just replace “hello world” in the code with “I love my geek” or any other message. Don’t worry. These are usually only 1-3 lines of code, so you should have no problem.
So how would YOU say “I Love You” in a geeky way?

“Even us Linux guys are romantic sometimes!” declares the hero of this video. We leave it up to you to decide whether his wife will be impressed when he installs RFID chips in the coffee-maker (she doesn’t drink coffee) or creates open-source themed candy hearts for the occasion.

lol, i just IM’d my honey the binary one and he started in with all these questions about “convert it to a dec number, or dec number with its ASCII character” blah, blah, blah. I’m not the computer geek, he is. I’m more of the Klingon love type of girl myself, lol.

Mommie: I knew a guy in high school who could program in hexadecimal. I can barely read it. I can convert, but reading it easily enough to rewrite code in it is next to impossible. Your honey sounds like my kinda guy.

Jason: I wonder if one day, paper cards will just not be sent anymore. I doubt it, because there’s people like me who will always buy and give them, but technology seems to take over everything.

narramissic: I was waiting for the rest of the video and it just ended in what looked like the middle. I felt abandoned in my search for uber-geekiness.
Pam: That is, in fact, binary for “I Love You”. I have this binary shirt, and I love to tell people what it means.

Awwww, I wish I had a bf that was a geek! I would be so excited and smitten with a piece of software…or a new microSD card….

Simple Mindz: I figured my wife wouldn’t want something so geeky, so I ended up making her a photo album with all kinds of craft do-dads and stuff. I didn’t even use a computer for it, except to order prints of a bunch of photos for it.

Michael: I’m in the same boat… see above.
El Di Pablo: Thanks. Get your Kling on. Sorry. That was bad. I won’t do that again.

Klingon for i love you - qaparHa’

That doesn’t look like “I love you” in binary….It looks like “Be sure to drink your Ovaltine” ….
