Python fag: uses Python because he can't comprehend a language that is actually useful. Listens J-Pop and anime music.
C programmer: Older programmer that thinks there could never be anything better than C, even though C's standard library is woefully inadequate. Listens to classic heavy metal (Megadeth, Anthrax, Iron Maiden)
C++ programmer: Learned it in college and hasn't yet needed to change to anything else. Listens to classic rock (Rush, Jethro Tull)
Haskell fag: "I'm not gonna use those shitty mainstream languages, man! Those fucking sell-outs." Listens to shitty indie music and complains that no one understands them.
Java fag: Learned Java in college, can't learn anything more useful. Listens to ClearChannel radio.
Am I missing anything?

very wrong for c and c++;
probably for other languages too, but i can't tell since i never used them.

Lol because I'm a Python fag and I'm also a weeaboo. It's not true that I cannot comprehend another language though; I can do Lisp (this is my way to say I've read SICP), but that's what stereotypes are about.
There's the Unix C programmer, which is a bearded guy in his 50s that complaints about how different to traditional Unix Linux is, and is used to do things the old way with C. He even uses the standard library, to some success.
The Ruby fag, much like the Python fag, but perhaps an even greater weeaboo (think bento box, with programming) and a bit more web oriented.
The Perl hacker, a social outcast who uses pictograms and weird languages to represent everything, and rarely ever talks in English. He listens to experimental music and christian evangelist music.
The Java fag also hates his life but doesn't know better, and thinks he's a CS guy because he manages to write 25 lines of mangled code a day, reimplementing some business logic for a boring bank application because the old one sucked even more.
The Lisp fag, has read SICP and brags about it everywhere in all kinds of ways. He's somewhat like the Haskell fag, but more relaxed, and doesn't even know what other languages there are. When he hears of a good feature, he adds it to his personal Lisp.
This particular Haskell fag: ``Well, I've spent over ten years going through BASIC, Pascal, C, X86 Assembler, C++, Java, Python, Ruby and Lisp, and I've come to the conclusion that Haskell sucks the least right now''. Listens to industrial, goth and shitty indie music and thinks that everyone else is wrong, but doesn't really care, because they give an excellent opportunity to be even more pissed off.

The /prog/ poster, has never finished a program, has never actually met another programmer, doesn't really understand any programming language, has ADD and listens to Dragonforce.

It is also typical for a C programmer to eat sand while getting fucked by a horse.
The Ruby programmer is such a weeaboo that he got into programming solely because he found out there was a language that was designed in Japan.

Don't forget the pseudo-intellectual hipster who only got into programming because of why's chainsmoking cartoon foxes. Usually driven by a vague desire to get his shitty blog "on rails".
The Lisp Fag knows all. Has read PAIP, SICP, CLTL2, Hyperspec, TAOCP, AIMA and all similar literature. Knows more than your professor of Computer Science. Has IQ of 150. Totally pwns you at anything.
What you meant was (equalp (type-of Justin) 'lisp-fag) . Yes, I am a lisp fag but sadly I have not read all the books specified and my IQ is 5 points lest than specified.

lol "Hyperspec" its like saying UNIX GOD READS MANPAGES
Woefully inadequate Listens to experimental music and then take an average of the following Microsoft development products must be no way to call the buttons are labeled individually.
Objective C fag: Typography and iconography are his true passions, because he thinks those are fine arts. Sucks at them both. Listens to gay Euro club music. Breath smells like cum.

Ruby. Like the Javascript guy, but in addition he gets way more cock. As a rockstar he is respected as much as he is feared for being a ninja. He does code katas in VIM during his sleep.

I know (or am learning) all those languages except Java (but I know C#) and none of the descriptions match me.
Starting at age 14, I learned C++, then C, then Python, then C# and am currently learning Haskell. At various points I also learned PHP, Perl, bash script and x86 assembly (although not very well). Don't get the wrong impression, though; I'm by no means a good programmer (mediocre, I'd say). I'm also learning Scheme while reading SICP. I'm pretty impressed by how simple the syntax is.
I'm most like the C programmer because I listen to classic heavy metal (don't like Anthrax or Iron Maiden but I love Megadeth) though I also love death metal. I don't think there could never be anything better than C, though, and I agree that its standard library is too small (though I would say that it's probably by design rather than by accident). The main thing that irritates me about it is the fact that everything is in the global scope. C++ alleviates that problem very slightly by placing the standard library in the std namespace (though for some reason some people like to put everything back into the global scope with using namespace std;).
.galaxy programmer; doesn't know why he continues to use the language despite Acti-fail-Blizzard's shortcomings. Doesn't give a fuck about music because that would make his map filesize too big. Won't ever get paid for spending thousands of hours of his life scripting in the galaxy editor and Notepad++ and is looked down upon by real programmers. Isn't actually worthy of being mentioned here because he and his preferred language are irrelevant; takes solace in the fact he's not using vJass anymore though.
