"Great paintings, for example, get you laid in a way that great
computer programs never do. Even not-so-great paintings - in fact, any
slapdash attempt at splashing paint onto a surface - will get you laid
more than writing software, especially if you have the slightest hint
of being a tortured, brooding soul about you. For evidence of this I
would point to my college classmate Henning, who was a Swedish double
art/theatre major and on most days could barely walk."

Your link brought up a tangential issue that has been bugging me.
Why is the 'coolness' factor of painting light years above that
of most other professions?
Hell, from the few developer's conferences I've been to, few artists
could hold a candle to some of the odd eccentric behavior I've seen.
('course I'm happily married so this is just a theoretical discussion for
me. :)
The world is so unfair!
