nooo, there's a few different interpretations of Turbo Geek. The one i think of most often is someone who use to be popular/have a few good friends, and for whatever reason, gave up on himself and everything he had. My favorite interpretation links the song with clinical depression. And probly the most accurate interpretation is Boyd singing about Dirk Lance, the former bass player for Incubus, who parted from the band because of 'creative differences'. A Crow Left of the Murder was the first cd released without Dirk, so it's only natural to send him off in some fasion or another.
But besides all that, it doesn't particularly have to do with the poll at all. I just think of my mind as my own stark, raving, sick, sad little world, where i spent a good hour determining what option best suits me =p I am disconnected from the world after all, and Turbo Geek outlines me fairly well.
