Programmer Symptoms

By Philip Bennefall


You know you're a true programmer when:
* Your first memory is an empty page.
* You measure your life accomplishments as a stack size.
* You answer the phone with a pointer address.
* You try to diagnose your best friends illness with GDB.
* You keep track of your social engagements in a linked list.
* You suggest sex to your girlfriend by asking if you may enter her critical section.
* You advise her of the possibility that this action may result in a stack overflow.
* When it does, you are certain that forking is the only logical conclusion.
* You finally propose to her in assembly language.
* You attempt to convince others that the universe is like a binary tree.
* You tell people in public places that they're all derived from a base class of apes.
* You consider your enemies to be corrupt heaps.
* You tell strangers not to come into your namespace.
* You remember the names of your friends as std::strings.
* You blame your incremental forgetfulness on memory leaks and race conditions.
* You are reading this list, noticing that it has 16 items.

* You increase the array by one to add another entry.
* You view your impairments as programming flaws, which you put down on your to-do list but never get around to.
* You count your age as version numbers. E.G. 2.5 for 25
* your birthday is actually your build date, and you are able to keep it constant each year.
* You write a diary just how you instructed all your applications to.
* If clauses have suddenly become extremely C-Like. Your life is full of ==!
* Whenever you can't remember something, you are more than certain that something overwrote it's memory address, and you knew where it had been moved to so you could point to it.
* Whenever you take too long to accomplish your task, you either 1. Wish your interpreter wouldn't run as slow, or 2. wish you had a faster processor.
* You start your day with { and end with }
* And you believe that death is just a bug, and you try everything possible not to trigger that particular function that causes it.

Oh and I forgot!
Every language on earth is a programming language, and you choose the one to use depending on which one's the easiest for that job... Ur... Wording.

How about every desision is an if or stwitch statement. When ever you write the words "or" and or "and" on a letter they are"||" "&&". I don't know how to fit in while loops. how about every day is a while loop?

All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.

while (day==Friday) {

if(!task.done) me.head.desk();
else me.press(alt+ctrl+f);

if(hunger<50) me.play_game(swamp);
else { me.load_resource(fridge); me.get_loaded_resource(fridge).search_for_simplest();}

wait(360000);
}

You'll notice that an important part of that is missing. smile
Well, two and a half, but eh.

//yes, I am very bored that is why I'm writing this.

Deep in the human unconscious is a pervasive need for a logical universe that makes sense. But the real universe is always one step beyond logic.
