The ironic thing is that I am often forced to use ANSI C and basically simulate OO design principles without proper language support. It's a twisted world.
Haha that reminds me off this commercial (it's in dutch) with an old guy ranting about how everything was better in the past: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWCj-c0K06Q . Doing the same here tho trying to optimize where possible even if it means breaking a pattern a bit. The problem for me is mostly projects get to massive to do them without MVC, OO and all. But the memory of the good old days makes it all ok even at my age .
