Karenism Deliciously geeky

Andrew* sent me a cute song about Ruby on Rails by Miles Forest:
I was instantly reminded of other RoR tidbits I’ve seen here and there. As a php developer, this video from railsenvy is more appropriate, but the java v RoR is more true.

And just to bring down those RoR devs a touch, here is my favorite RoR joke (swiped from this site):

Just inside the gates of heaven, St. Peter sits at a desk checking people in.
Peter: “Welcome to heaven. Programming language?”
The man at the front of the line says, “Smalltalk.”
Glancing at his clipboard, Peter says, “Room 33. Be very quiet as you pass Room Six.”
The process repeats itself with the next person in line:
Peter: “Welcome to heaven. Programming language?”
Person #2: “Common Lisp.”
Peter: “Room 17. Be very quiet as you pass Room Six.”
The next person moves to the front of the line with a look of curiosity on her face.
Peter: “Welcome to heaven. Programming language?”
Person #3: “Python.”
Peter: “Room 54. Be very quiet as you pass Room Six.”
Person #3: “Why do you keep telling us to be quiet as we pass Room Six?”
Peter: “Because the Ruby on Rails People are in Room Six, and they think they’re the only ones here.”

Of course, all of this comes back to my absolute favorite nerdcore rapper, Monzy.

(warning: this is extremely academically nerdy)
So Much Drama:
Despite the fact that he’s from Stanford, I absolutely love him. Really, I just don’t want our schools to get between us, especially since we’ve owned their asses for the past SIX YEARS. Oh, and he uses emacs.
