Are Software Developers Naturally Weird?
jammag writes "Well, c'mon, yes — let's admit it. As a veteran coder discusses as he looks at his career, software development is brimming with the offbeat, the quirky and the downright odd. As he remembers, there was the 'Software Lyrics' guy and the 'Inappropriate Phone Call' programmer, among others. Are unique types drawn to the profession, or are we 'transformed over time by our darkened working environments and exposure to computer screen radiation?'"
...your friends are gathered around the very same table, of which you effectively manage to clear within 15 minutes with your endless drivel about Drupal CMS which of course - you really can't for the life of you - understand why isn't the most interesting thing on this planet next to stretchpants!
What this world is coming to - is for you and me to decide.
No, pretty much EVERYONE is normal. Stop trying to make YOURSELF unique and weird. You aren't, you are normal, you are not weird. You are not unique. You are not special. All of this will remain true no matter how many times your mommy and teachers tell you otherwise. Sorry to burst your bubble.
At best, you are arrogant, but this is pretty common now days.
And only an idiot thought Tom Cruise was normal before he jumped the couch. I would like to point out, Katie Holmes most certainly qualifies as an idiot.

I know the previous poster personally, and I have to say, he was the first person to come to mind when commenters here were talking about weird, arrogant kids who think they are better than everyone else. I am actually quite glad he is living overseas this year.
so don't nothing phase me.
