The opposite of a RedneckSmalltalker:
You are a LiberalPinkoCommieSmalltalker if
- You choose to live in countries with comprehensive national health services and do not take out private health insurance even if working (undercover) in a 'city'bank
- You support gun control
- You travel to work by public transport
- ... and don't own a car
- ... and don't know how to drive
- ... alternatively you may cycle in
- So that you can keep writing code while commuting
- ... except when cycling in
- You write class comments
- ... and sometimes even method comments
- You also write documentation (red cover optional)
- ... but not too much (save those trees!)
- You use a neat testing framework
- ...religiously (using this word, as always, as a metaphor)
- ...even if those rednecks wrote it
- Refuse to smalltalk with Austrians (the nationality, or the economic school? ;-)
- ...unless they commit treason
- You think it's great that Smalltalk treats every object equally to every other object
- ... in fact, you've redefined Object== to make this the case :-)
- You describe refactoring as "class struggle"
- Every class is a working class
- You dismiss SOAP-based systems, because they are only for the "chattering classes"
I think it must be significant, somehow, that this page is decidedly not funny, unlike RedneckSmalltalker.
refactoring="class struggle" is funny as hell. -- RedneckJavaProgrammer?

I think I HaveThisPattern, and I'm not at all convinced that's a good thing. :-) -- AdamBerger
