I'm failing to see how a situation which leads to a grown man wearing three badges in a public place can be seen as 'winning'.

Can't remember if I've put this on here before but I once traveled by chunnel and car to Belgium from the UK with a guy who was born in Holland, lived in the UK, had a Belgian Driving license, a Swiss passport, and a car registered in France. Or some such similar combination, I forget the exact details.
And the only problem we had crossing a border was trying to get back on the train in France when British customs asked to look in the boot of the new BMW I was driving and asked what a car battery was doing there wired up to stuff. As it was the first time I had opened the boot I looked quite surprised too, but there was a diagram next to it so I persuaded them it was supposed to be there.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

From Q&A: i dont know it's a good question that i ask or not
but i learn basic c++ programming in console
but i want to prgramming and earn money and enjoy with this
but i can only write program in console and this BLACK place (shet)
in this time i'm realy confused and i dont how i should do
i dont know i should learn api functions or learn vc win32 prgramming or learn MFC
please guide me to learn
with a list step by step that i should do
in this way if i should read any book please tell me??
Made me chuckle. "The console is a black place". Maybe installing a spell checker would be a great idea?
On the spell checker topic: I know Chris wants us to be mild with non-native english speakers, but at a certain level (when the drivel becomes almost unreadable) I sometimes think that some should invest time in learning english before actually getting started with programming. Not that I demand everyone to speak a perfect english, but their conversation partner shouldn't need to decrypt the sentences...
[Edit]This wasn't clear, but the last chapter is not related to the question rather than it is a thought that came to my mind as I wrote "spell checker"[/Edit]
I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.

He probably meant that programming takes him to the black places in his head.
I know that's what programming can do to people 
It's an OO world.
public class SanderRossel : Lazy<Person>
{
public void DoWork()
{
throw new NotSupportedException();
}
}

That's why I listen to The Smiths while programming. 
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

I really just listen to anything. From 60's to 2010's (mostly skipping the 80's though) and from new age/ambient to dubstep

public class SanderRossel : Lazy<Person>
{
public void DoWork()

I avoid nearly everything after 1990. I have a lot of 80s; ah the good old days hacking away in my parents' basement...

I have a lot of that from the 80s, but I don't listen to it much anymore.

With the chance of being a typical Leslie, I did what I could do to stop myself of pasting this. Obviously I failed.

You also seem to have done what you can to mix the words in that sentence up as much as possible

Yeah, my sentence could use a comma or two.
This happens when you have some structure knowledge of German language deep inside your brain. I noticed that sometimes even when I speak my birth language I use the German language construction which is inappropriate at these moments.
I wonder what else I could find in there
Edit: I don't mind if someone points my sentence flaws After all that's one of the ways of learning

Even in german that sentence could use some commas
I'm happy to have something like a wall between my German and English language knowledge
