I had a friend of some reputation who learned to code C on basically cocaine and lsd.
Well, cocaine I can believe. Not that I have much experience with drugs at all, either personal or indirect, but as far LSD or other psychedelic drugs are concerned I find your claim at best extremely difficult to believe! Maybe he learnt C in a period in which he was also using LSD, but I doubt that he did code during a trip...
As far as pot goes/ if I smoke the stuff, I can't touch a computer for a week. It makes me feel like perl is just about printing html line by line.
Maybe because you, like so sadly many others still think that is a web-oriented programming language having mostly to do with "CGI & C."?
Alcohol makes me want to use windows machines. Fortunately, alcohol wears out. And I don't drink around computers just like I don't smoke around children.
Alcohol and *NIX can coexist, as long as you keep that minimum amount of lucidity needed not to drink and root!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
