They cannot help it. I don’t blame them.

Stuck up, know it all, or arrogant. Whatever you want to call them, they are who they are.

As the years went by, and I became an expert in web design and web programming, I noticed that this arrogance has bestowed its presence on me as well. I did not know why, but arrogance is not something you purposely feel like becoming to show off. It is a natural habit that evolves over time once you become an expert, or know something so well to the point that it becomes part of you.

I finally understand why some people are full of arrogance.

Top Arrogant Professions

Many University Professors’ eyes roll at you unconditionally sometimes, and they can’t answer you straight up with a simple answer, because they lack the brain power to go down to that level. They are so into advanced crap that they forgot what it meant to be a novice. They can’t help it. I don’t blame them for that, and I actually agree with the unconditional rolling of the eyes at some stupid questions that students don’t bother looking up for themselves.

Doctors are the second most natural arrogant bastards. They give you a straight answer without thinking, and sometimes chuckle at the end of the sentence because you asked it. “How come you did not know that?” is their constant question to every question you ask them. Maybe because I am NOT a doctor is my answer. I did not spend my 20′s and early 30′s learning about a microscopic part of my body that can only be fixed by a 10 hour surgery. That’s not my problem. So stop being arrogant about how much you know! We know you know too much, so help us!

The third most arrogant bastards, the Engineers. Oh, they think they know it all because they know if they screw up, they get their ass sued faster than a cop busting those pot dealers in downtown every day. Why are Engineers arrogant? Maybe because they spend 90% of their time designing something so great, so magnificent, and then there is that chance where it actually ends up working and being kick ass awesome! Awesome is what they describe their products. Yes, awesome! And when the final product is displayed to the world, their arrogance increases 10 folds. The more they succeed, the more arrogant they become. I don’t blame them. They do build awesome stuff that does change the world.

Then comes the best, most arrogant bastards known to man, the Computer Programmers. It’s ok, I am not offended. I am arrogant, because I believe that whatever I build, the internet will consume faster than that whale of a mama you got. Yah, I am rude, arrogant, and have no time to be serious. I am a programmer. I spend hours, days, weeks, months, and years creating ONE software package that is buggy, but does so much crap for you, that you demand it must be fixed. And you will pay for it to get fixed a lot more than when it was developed over the years, just so you can be lazy person using a program that does all the work for you. (Now that’s a long run on sentence.) Also, programmers can’t write, and have no idea what a mix construction is.

This is how we write:

echo "Hello Arrogant Bastards!";
for ($i==0; $i<=10; $i++) {
if ($i%2==0) {
echo "Your evenly delicious!";
} else {
echo "No wonder your mama said you were odd!";
}
}
echo "If you understood this, then everyone has a reason to call you an arrogant bastard.";

And we think that is a joke, and we laugh. We also have our own computer languages, our own programming jokes, and we have our own societies and call novice users Newbies, or Noobs. We play computer games for over 12 hours straight, and we never get bored. We can create work for our selves that have no money value at all, and we give it out to the world and call it open source. We think that we are awesome because we rule the internet and actually know what http stands for, and what a DoS attack is on a server. We hack whatever we please, not to get information from someone, but we become over joyed when the hacking works and we can get in.

There is so much that a computer programmer knows, enjoys, and will laugh at you to your face when you don't know what they are talking about. We are arrogant people, and we tell people we are. We can't help it. We just know far too many languages, and far too many things that can destroy or shape up the world.

It's great being a programmer. :up:

This song is great! We do rule the world!

Blah Blah, Funny, They said what?
