That was good for a mid-week laugh.  I especially enjoyed:

"emacs is better than vi"  == "It's too peaceful here, let's start a flame war"
"vi is better than emacs" == "It's too peaceful here, let's start a flame war"

And this one made me literally LOL:

"^X^Cquit^\[ESC][ESC]^C" ==  "I don't know how to quit vi"

Subject: Humor: Translating what programmers say to what they mean

Fairly funny, and true. Examples:

"It's broken" == "Your code has bugs"
"It has some issues" == "My code has bugs"
"It's Obscure" == "Your code has no comments"
"It's self documenting" == "My code has no comments"
"IMHO" == "You're wrong!"
