Do You Grok Grok?

Jun 27, 2008
Culture & Entertainment, Humor

If you can’t name the book and author from which the word “grok” came from, should you really be able to use the word?  I recommend an International Grok Licensing Organization, cruising the interwebs to perform accreditations and hand out citations.

    Ah yes, sweet memories…Stranger in a Strange Land has always been one of my favorites. Thanks for reminding me… Linda from Crone and Bear It

    I seem to recall a great bumper sticker years ago that said:

    “Grok Grep?”

    And yes, Charles Stross did a great job with Accelerando.
