Programmer jokes

Yep, it is official, when it comes to programming jokes, I have absolutely no sense of humor. Even after getting the bread joke (granted it had to be explained to me), and reading all of the other ones (only one that made me smirk was the carton of milk and eggs joke), but still thought they were all utterly retarded. I'll stick to George Carlin, Jeff Dunham, etc. for my laughs.

It's okay, everyone's sense of humour is different. :)

Too much programming made the programmer stupid at life

That's not something that is learned or conditioned. It's something that you're born with. :) It's the same thing that makes people naturally good at things like programming and naturally bad at things like people. You can learn to fake your way through things, but you'll always be naturally good at things and struggle with others.

Most Java programmers live in Atlantis, because it's below C level.

You should have said assembler programmers. Java is much higher level than C.

Yeah, I think he inverted it in the retelling. Perhaps it should be:

"Why are there no Java programmers in the Netherlands?"
"Because it's below.."

Not really a joke but these always amuse me:

The problem with that programmer kid, is that eventually he'll hit an Out of Money exception. This will cause him to abort (i.e. disappear from reality).

GDB on Android is kind of a joke.

Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
The program no longer exists.
(gdb) bt
No stack.

Only it's not funny. >:(

Similar to the bread* joke:

A mother told her programmer son, "Theres one piece of cake and one bun left, have the cake or the bun" - there was nothing left for the mother.

*quite funny the bread joke in that when you tell people who aren't techie they just don't get it and you tell people who are techie you can tell those that don't get it but pretend they do otherwise they'd not be as hard-core as you ;)

I'd gotten the bread joke but the cake/bun one is not to clear to me.

1 OR 2 = 3.
Cake OR bun = cake + bun.

If she'd said cake xor bun, she'd have enjoyed dessert.

I sort of recognize that evaluation. Is there any practical use for that equivalency?

If people spoke logically, English would be quite a bit different.

"Aren't you coming along?"
"No"
"Fine! Sit here for all I care!"
"I said I was coming!"

I guess though with short-cut logic (logical not bitwise), e.g. cake || bun, he would have stopped if cake was true :)

Walker's logic is why I couldn't get the joke. I like the Arthur's variation!

Adapted from "That 70's Show": A programmer marries. His wife makes him promise not to cheat on her or lie. She comes home one day and finds him in bed with another woman. Infuriated, she reminds him of the promise. He responds " You asked me not to cheat or lie. I did not lie.".

By reading this sig, I, the reader, agree to render my soul to Bob Keane. I, the reader, understand this is a legally binding contract and freely render my soul.

I think that joke's better if you take it out from programming and he says "You said not to cheat or lie. I decided to lie."
