Since you ask, I'll admit it: I enjoy trolling C++ users because the language has so often thought of itself as superior to C. Beating on the language always gets lots of discussion going, which is fun. I've nothing against the language, or any other language, as such. Good tools, in the hands of good developers.

C++ developers tend to be more pragmatic - we'd happily write in C if necessary, we just find it limited. And since C++ is almost a superset of C, there's rarely any need to use it.
