Computer Joke

By
Real Estate Agent with Homes Charlotte, LLC
You've been programming too long when
When you are counting objects, you go "0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D...".

When asked about a bus schedule, you wonder if it is 16 or 32 bits.

When your wife says "If you don't turn off that darn machine and come to bed,then I am going to divorce you!", and you chastise her for for omitting the else clause.

When you are reading a book and look for the space bar to get to the next page.

When you look for your car keys using: "grep keys /dev/pockets"

When after fooling around all day with routers etc, you pick up the phone and start dialing an IP number.

When you get in the elevator and double-press the button for the floor you want.

When not only do you check your email more often than your paper mail, but you remember your {network address} faster than your postal one.

When you go to balance your checkbook and discover that you're doing the math in octal.

When you dream in 256 pallettes of 256 colors.

Check out the big brain on John! 

Although you seriously know more about technology that I do, I'll input this.  I tell peoople that ask me how something works with regard to technology or the web, "I'd tell you more, but I don't want your brain to hemorage". 

 

You know the look -  that glassy eyed look ..... and you've merely been referencing the intricate way to assemble code to accomplish a basic task, and delivered it plainly as if you were explaining how to make breakfast toast.  It's not really THAT painful, is it?  :)
