"He is smarter than "the masses" but he's not smarter than people like Stroustrup"
I guess you completely miss his point. If Stroustrop was the only person writing C++ code then your point might be valid. Then again, I doubt Bjarne thinks C++ is a good language for OS development when there will be thousands of developers involved either. Can you show me something that suggests he does?
"um, i think you made my point.
I owe you an apology! Up until now I thought your point was completely different! Now that I realize that your point was that you are a total idiot, I stand corrected!
"I'm stupid because I don't follow the crowd?
No. You are stupid because you just admitted that most people use drugs, and still can't see how it is absurd to claim that choosing to use drugs is the cause of addiction.
" The closest I came to drugs was when my mother made beer chicken."
... and you are stupid for openly admitting that you have no experience with the subject matter, but are willing to hold yourself up as some kind of expert anyway. You are doubly stupid for continuing to paint me as the ignorant one after blatantly and openly exposing your ignorance.
"But GOOD ON YOU for fighting back against me for making you feel stupid
...
The sad part is, you actually think you could make me feel stupid. I don't use drugs, but I could use a whole shit ton of them, and still be more educated and more intelligent than you. Thanks for the laugh though!
"The only good thing is that now that rich white people have drug problems (ie, "real" people), maybe we can muster up some sympathy for other addicted people now?"
Hey, it worked for Rush Limbaugh! Oh wait
