Shame on you for calling me a "Coder".

I usually don't watch the Morning Show on channel 7 unless I am in a waiting room or with my girlfriend, in both cases changing the channel is beyond my reach. This morning I was in the airport waiting for my flight and as usual the morning show was on TV in the waiting room. I came across this weird interesting topic, as the title of the news was "Beauty and a Geek -- Victoria's secret model and codes in spare time". Similar subheadings kept rolling in at the bottom of the screen as the interview went on. I will quote few of those "part time coder", "she codes in her spare time", "beauty with brain ( well this one wasn't a heading but something similar that the reporter said )". Seriously WTF !! Is it only me or everyone can spot why I am ranting about this ? I will point it out just in case: 1. Using words/terms like "coder".. is so wrong . This is 2014 .. Seriously who says words like that? And I'm unaware
