brogrammer 

A programmer who breaks the usual expectations of quiet nerdiness and opts instead for the usual trappings of a frat-boy: popped collars, bad beer, and calling everybody "bro". Despised by everyone, especially other programmers.

Oh my god, John is talking about football and chicks again. That guy is such a brogrammer.

Did you see what happened on Vampire-Based Programming last night?

Rimmi was crestfallen because VBP was pre-empted for a presidential address.

Spinach Programming 

Something thats good for you, but not necessarily entertaining/enjoyable for others.

Seth MacFarlane used Spinach Programming when he temporarily killed Brian, everybody freaked out, but the ratings for the show went up.

DARE Programme 

DARE (Drug - Abuse - Resistance - Education)

some dumb programme telling kiddos not to do drugs and Marijuana. also, it says to be nice to people or else they'll secretly hate you. also no bulling.

Actually, Marijuana kills absolutely no one. I mean, that doesn't mean it perfectly safe. smoking weed under the age of 25 can lead to memory problems and stoof. if your an adult, it's really your choice.

Bulling is bad tho, don't do.

don't do drugs kiddo... or you'll DIE!!!

programming hydra 

A programming hydra is problem of trying to patch one bug in a program only to create more with the patch.

John: I thought you said you were going to patch your program?
Kevin: I did patch it.
John: Well it has more bugs now.

faith based programming

Faith based programming is what happens when a programmer isn't smart or capable enough of writing good code that they pray whatever they did actually works. In early years, programmers would put a lot of debug statements, no-op loops, etc in code that somehow created the magic timing for it to work.

Programmer 1: Did you ever fix that bug we talked about yesterday?

Programmer 2: Ya, well sort of. I just added a few debug statements and it went away

Programmer 1: Oh, I get it, you are doing a little Faith Based Programming?

Programmer 2: Yep, even though I can't see it, I believe the problem has somehow gone away...
