Sitting here, headphones on and banging away adding about 50 classes to an EF model (largest DB I've ever put together!)
 
Nobody can make a guitar sing like David Gilmour, Live in Gdansk[^].

A 5 for listening to Gilmour.
I was brought up to respect my elders. I don't respect many people nowadays.

It must be a Dave kind of day; I'm listening to Dave Koz.
 
Yes, I like smooth jazz. No, I don't care it sounds like elevator music. Yes, I realize it's uncool. It's better than listening to 'Z' arguing with my boss, or 'J' on his cell phone in the cube next to mine.

No, it is not uncool.
What me worry?

Probably the single thing I dislike about CP is the loss of credibility you incur when it comes out that you don't listen to metal Sigh | :sigh: .
 
I've got some on my iPod, but I have to be in the mood to listen to it. Most of the time I'm sufficiently wound up over what I'm working on, I don't need my music to add to it.

I thought that was when you admit you program in VB.net.

I may listen to crap music, but at least I don't do that. It's like admitting your preference for left-hand threaded sheep.

It's OK, I'm not credible anyway.
I'm considering SQL to be my first language, how does that count?

Hey! I write code in VB.NET, as well as C#, C, C++, and many others!
 
Got a problem with that!? Laugh | :laugh:

It was meant as a sarchasm. I work in VB.NET when I'm not making Queries in SQL.
 
I find VB bashing mostly childish. The capabilities is almost identical to C# as they are both using the CRL.
The big difference is the syntax, readability and a whole load of brackets.
And readability is a matter of opinion mostly.
