How to lose arguments on the interwebs.

"And I don't agree with using GOTO. Ever. In the last 23 years of C* and C++ programming, I've never felt the need to use one."

Never use how long *you* have been doing something as a way to show how bad ass you are at it. Especially when you then go on to say you haven't done it in the last 15 years...

There are groups of people that have been doing something they are sure is the correct and totally right way of doing things for thousands of years that are undeniably wrong.

Have you ever used break in a loop? Well you just used a goto to the outside of the loop. THE HORROR!
