…I missed this when it was new, so if you missed it also you might get a chuckle out of Loud Thinking’s Emo Programmer post.
From the post:
This is a unique chance to escape such silly constraints as “the best tool for the job” or simply be about “getting things done”. As an Emo Programmer™, you’re free to use arguments such as:
- …because I feel like it
- …because it makes me special
- …because I get to feel warm and fuzzy inside
Are you an emo programmer? You know who you are… Personally, I’m still waiting for the definitive book on the Klingon programming methodology…
