This is believeable if you change "asian stripper" to "obese LARP-er" and "cocaine" to "girl scout thin mint cookies."
I'm a huge fan of Emacs. For two reasons really. First, it's alway in "edit" mode. I don't need to hit a key to get into a mode. When I was new, this was great. All I needed to know was how to open and save a file. From that I could edit fine in Emacs, everything else came in time.

Secondly, the extensibility is just amazing. I have a function to copy a line. It's bound to C-c l. When I'm on an Emacs where I don't have that setup I'm lost.
