I had my buddy download VIM for his Mac, and once he started it, I got a nasty phone call from him about "What the heck is this stuff", so I explained it to him, and he told me he would never use it, and just grumped. He did not delete it though.......

He hollers and fusses, and then ends up trying things..... Sort of like me.

I did get a call from my buddy about VIM, it was not complementary nor was it positive towards VIM. He was somewhat annoyed that I had caused him to waste his time.

You can remind him that many IDEs and terminals can be set to use VIM keybindings (and duck ;))
