Recently some ignorant, nescient C++ programmer called me a Java programmer, because I use K&R style and not his preferred Allman style. Even Stroustrup uses hanging braces (with the exception of function body opening braces)!

To be honest, I often feel as if I was in a brothel on some blogs with CoffeeRubyNodeScript highlighting. (However, the choice of colors on this one isn't too good either)
