You must be a Lisp programmer then, because across all the many languages I've worked with so far, all but Common Lisp had a bad ratio - way above 50% - of annoying boilerplate and decorations to code that means something (and with Lisp you beat it only when you start using meta-programming facilities extensively, which is frowned upon in projects that have more than 2 people working on them). You can solve some of the issues with snippets, but once your snippets start looking like tiny scripts it stops being funny.
