        There exists at least one programmer who is not sarcastic. But who cares, he must not be very good.

                Just a quick question, by "challenge all withold sarcasm" do you mean a) Make a comment that isn't intended as sarcastic b) Make a comment that cannot be easily seen as sarcastic c) Make a comment that cannot be interpreted as sarcastic at all.

                      First thing is, how do you define a programmer? Aren't they the guys who ressemble the antagonist from a horror movie?

                        sarcasm[^]: noun 1. harsh or bitter derision or irony. 2. a sharply ironical taunt; sneering or cutting remark: "a review full of sarcasms." I think sarcasm becomes a hallmark of most programmer personalities. There is a dissonance between the world and our models of it that gets to be very frustrating, and the expression of that frustration is sarcasm. Or quiet drooling in a corner.

                          My level of sarcasm is directly proportional to the level of incompetence around me. Sadly, that means that I am almost always sarcastic to some degree or other. ;) Marc

                            Lets see, programmers are highly logical people who mostly work in a corporate environment. Why would we be sarcastic? :confused:

                                      The use of "withhold" implies to me that he means you should hold it back until it builds up enough to really put someone's eye out.
