Thought this would be interesting. We all have these high opinions of our selfs as programmers, but I know were all able to poke fun at our selfs. So, here is where I want to see you post all those lines that you constantly hear that poke fun at/define programmers in humorous ways. Or for that matter, just any funny programing joke.

I don't know how many of you read Dijkstra, but here's my favorite quote of his:

"Object-oriented programming is an exceptionally bad idea which could only have originated in California." -- Edsger Dijkstra

how you do you get a programmer stuck in an infinite loop:
give him a note saying, open, read, close, repeat.

meh.

Why do programmers always get Christmas and Halloween mixed up?

A decimal 25 is an octal 31

This was from a post a while back on this board, but I don't remember who it was:

"Real programmers program with pen and paper."

I think that's how it went. Pretty true.

You're not a programmer unless you have a profound hate for semi-colons and refuse to use them in any essays.

Wtf is a semi-colon and how do I use it in a sentence? Eh! Yeah, I rarely use one in an essay or paper anyway, so they don't really exist in my world unless I'm on this hunk of metal called a computer.

god dam you, i was gonig to say that one...

And as for the refrence to semi-conlons, i would say ''your not a programer if you refues to except that a sentence ends period''

i personally think it is rather samrt that.
