Why aren't you using Vim?

Why aren't you using Vim for all of your text editing needs?

Using Vim (or Emacs if you're a macfag) literally allows you to get better at editing text with time. Time spent with the editor gains rent.

Compare this to using an IDE, you will always be as good at editing text as you were when you first started. The ability to get better at editing text doesn't exist with IDEs.

I learnt vim first and now I've learnt it and memorised enough to work with it I stubbornly refuse to learn anything else.

Emacs is shit anyway, I remember when I was choosing which editor to learn first I had a bit of a go at it and was like wtf? I don't want to learn a key combination longer than the finishing moves in MORTAL KOMBAT! just to be able to save a fucking file or whatever.
