Three guys on math
Coder:
(In Jeans and T-shirt, next to a cup of coffee) I look down on him (Indicates Excel'r) because I write proper programs.Excel'r:
(Trousers, shirt, no tie) I look up to him (Coder) because he writes proper programs; but I look down on him (Hand-Calculater) because he has no graphics. I have a GUIHand-Calculater:
(Student) I know my place. I look up to them both. But I don't look up to him (Excel'r) as much as I look up to him (Coder), because he writes apps and games.Coder:
I do write apps and games, but I have a higher barrier to entry. So sometimes I look up (bends knees, does so) to him (Excel'r).Excel'r:
I still look up to him (Coder) because although I have easy access, I am vulgar. But I am not as vulgar as him (Hand-Calculater) so I still look down on him (Hand-Calculater).Hand-Calculater:
I know my place. I look up to them both; but while I am poor, I am honest, industrious and trustworthy. Had I the inclination, I could look down on them. But I don't.Excel'r:
We all know our place, but what do we get out of it?Coder:
I get a feeling of superiority over them.Excel'r:
I get a feeling of inferiority from him, (Coder), but a feeling of superiority over him (Hand-Calculater).Hand-Calculater:
I get RSI.Original Sketch:

Python PyPy interpreter in Javascript: Chrome and Edge beat firefox!
.
Firefox occasionally and erratically hit >280,000 over the next ten runs.
Chrome usually hit >450,000 over the next ten runs.
Edge consistantly hit >416,000 over the next ten runs.
It's all a bit of fun :-)
