I am a pretty laid back guy, but lately I have started getting a bit worried about the state of programming, or more specifically loud mouthed blog-wielding programmers. I have seen so much stupid shit floating around that I feel it is my duty to stick an IBM Model M keyboard in the ground and wave the flag of Sanity in peoples faces.

It seems that quite a few programmers have discovered a “new” paradigm called Functional Programming, and suddenly it has become fashionable to dismiss Object Oriented Programming as the Old Way To Do Things.
