My dad: I don't know why you like programming... you write lines of meaningless things, there is no logic behind.
Me: ...Actually, it's not true... ehm... it doesn't matter... (in my mind: you would not understand)

"Imagine speaking with a child trying to explain what you want. Some times it's too complicated to his mind and you have to break it into small steps or more abstract conceptions. I'm explaining human things to the machine to make it do stuff I want. it takes tons of imagination and some experience, but it totally worth it when you see the result. When you it works."
Easy.
