1) You go to bed and close your eyes and see your code, and notice a missing semi colon and go back on the PC and sure enough, it's missing, so you fix it, then end up staying another hour to add some other feature to the program.

2) Your job is a programmer, and you end up doing overtime for free - at home.

3) You decompiled Windows twice, only to realize it will be easier to just recode it from scratch, if you want to get those bugs fixed.

4) You *made* a Linux distro, *from stratch*

5) You failed math because you kept using programs to calculate word problems and showed the teacher the source code to prove your answer.

6) When you put something in brackets while writting normal English, you put a semi colon after it.

7) When writting an essay or research paper, you use /* comments */ to indicate your statistic sources and such.

8) Watching sports to you is a big chore, while finalizing a program is done as pass time, even at work.

9) You are too lazy to search for drivers for this old sound card you found, so you program your own and they actually work.

10) The letter/number keys are less weared out than the non-letter/number keys.
