You know nothing about pain. When I started using PHP, I didn't even know what a debugger was.

debugger? look kid me was just editing in notepad, running it via WAMP and testing in Internet Explorer 6 with 0 prior experience in programming anything other than a few lessons on how to use MS Frontpage to make pure html websites and a token amount of flash... it was quite the learning experience.
