    Real programmers don't need to program. They just manipulate the EM field generated by their brain so as to cause electrical anomalies which translate to hexadecimal instructions and machine code inside the processor.

    I get this is a joke but is anyone else annoyed by people who are serious when they use a phrase like "real programmers do....?"

      Mine is, "// TODO Still a big f*****g mystery why Category object in KpiAggregateCriteria has null UnitOfMeasure and DisplayFormat." It is in fact because EF doesn't load association sets automatically, unless they are explicitly projected in your query.

      Not a comment, but in a defect report under "steps to reproduce" ... "Chant magic incantation three times then wave wand."

      while (e) { Coyote(); }

        This was from last year (or maybe two years ago). It was written by a contractor in some code for us. It wreaks of irony because it is a completely illogical statement, yet completely true in this software context of the code. // Note: there are 1024 milliseconds in a second

                  Real programmers drop to a command prompt and type: COPY CON PROGRAM.EXE And then begin whistling into their 1200 baud acoustic-coupler modem.

                    Real programmers don't need a compiler.

                    Real programmers need only beer! They program everything else!

                      Real programmers have work to do, and don't write stupid comments on threads :-)

                      Real programmers don't work, they do enjoy programming. Real programmers don't write stupid comments on thread just because they don't use threads... :-D

                        'Someday VB you'll grow up to be a real language with boolean short circuiting I had a bunch of nested if statements that could have been simplified with boolean short circuiting and I was frustrated.
