For many years I've been wondering why in programming, (supposedly) intelligent people spend so much time and effort arguing why their most favorite turd is better than the other's favorite turd.
Finally, I've heard about Sayre's law:
"In any dispute the intensity of feeling is inversely proportional to the value of the issues at stake."
(Addendum: You can also say that - unfortunately - a programming language is a very personal choice for many, so if you insult a language, you insult the person.)
