I got 7 out of 10.............

6/10 here. But then I'm one of those silly programmer guys. Or am I a serial killer -- I forget...

[LCHIEN]

apparently not.... or
let me answer with another question:
Why do programmers look like serial killers?

[zootroy]

8/10. The only one that I knew for sure was Son of Sam. I didn't recognize anyone else. A better test would be serial killers and mathematicians. Not many people make it in or out of a PHD math program without looking or going completely nuts.

Hey, seven out of ten right! It just goes to show that it's easy to judge a person based on looks alone... just sometimes you'll be wrong.

5/10

But I know people who fall on either side of the coin! It all comes down to Genius or Crazy!

Heck I have a friend who says I'll be a mass murderer some day; I just smile/smirk and say, Not mass, as I only will kill them one at a time. Dark forboding LOL.

[rbfunk]

6/10 They all looked like serial killer programers to me.
Plus all of the prgrammers that I know were a Jolt Cola away from being serial killers.

Of course, truely advanced programmers become parallel killers ...

[430752]

all are serial killers

well, if they work with parallel, usb, or firewire peripheals, then they're all serial killers!

yes, you can use that, its not copyrighted, go ahead, spread it around, I know, it was a good 'un!

It all depends on when the photo was taken. Take a pic of a computer guy at 4am in front of his computer, having spent last 18 hours non-stop debugging some elusive error, and serial killers will shudder looking at it. It will likely be a face devoid of any traces of humanity. My wife says when sometimes there is a call from work at 4am cause there is some problem in London, and I have to fire up my VPN and go fishing for a fix, my face often assumes that totally scary otherworldly look.
