Subject: OT: An odd question that has arrisen within my household

These question is off topic, I realize this, but please bear with me.

1. What exactly defines a "script kiddie"?

2. Does using a port scanner make you a "script kiddie" since you 
yourself did not write the code?

3. Does it make you a script kiddie because it is a means of exploitation?
