I hope you take my feedback constructively but I am going to criticize most of this. But let me tell you the positives first: it is refreshing, different and definitely very confident. Now, your cover letter, even though trying to stand out by being personal, does not offer any value to me as your potential employer other than the fact that you are cool and trying a new approach. Reason is that you are telling me a lot of good stuff but not showing me what you have done already. What are your accomplishments as a coder in your own words ? For example, you say "to me, there is nothing more gratifying than fixing that last little bug". Sounds good. How about you give me an example of when you did something like this which helped the team? "Give me a problem to solve and I won’t give up unitl it kneels before me" Great. But again, give me specific examples. For example, if you say "I solved the problem of performance in the system by doing xxx which saved the team yyy in terms of time and efficiency" would be effective. So overall, make it specific with examples. You can keep your personal tone but by adding specific achievements (small or big), you get the attention of any employers.
