Needs registration, so I don't feel like putting it in the news. However, some might like it (plus, would the animal book people really abuse your email?), so here you go[^].

There is something a little odd about those results. According to the survey, developers who spend the least time with code and the most time in meetings make the most money. 
In response I think I will change my job title to Social Software Architect on any future resumes to maximize hiring potential, though.

managers do most of the meeting. unlike us junior developer which only do coding. That why I think that is possibly that manager put themselves as developer but they help out and never do code much.

Someone tells you that 'you know nothing about X' when they just asked you about an aspect of X you don't even use, even though there are numerous other aspect of X where you are a master?
e.g. Someone asks you something about Facebook, you don't use FB and don't know, and then the other person summarizes that you know nothing about computers.
ARRRRRRRGH!

I think the opposite situations usually outweigh the example you cited, but yes it would be irritating!
e.g. Relatives assume that because you are a programmer that you know everything about computers, A/V equipment, etc., basically anything electronic. They also tend to think that you can fix all their stuff for free!

I get that all the time. Because I'm a programmer and per definition "work with computers" everybody asks me to fix their email problems (always caused by poor or malfunctioning internet connection), wifi, home network etc.
I HATE networking and hardware problems couldn't interest me less. That's not to say that I CAN'T actually do it, but I just don't care about anything but my own hardware... (I guess that might have come out slightly wrong, but you know what I mean, right?  )

I hate it more when I answer a simple question, and end up getting hounded whenever someone wants to know anything about computers.

I hate it when I teach someone all I know about something, and then when what I've taught them isn't sufficient, they come asking me to fix their problem, like I know something more that I didn't share...

Why would the foolishness of fools disturb you ?
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others.
Same thing when you are stupid.
