Did they dance fight? Were they ripping heat sinks off boards to use as weapons? So much for "oh in private they all get along really well".

<Err, the title is a West Side Story riff, which in turn was actually based on Shakespeare's Montagues and Capulets of Romeo & Juliet>

No, it's mortgages, car payments, and career advancement. Add alcohol and a girl, and it can be a pretty explosive mix. . .

My favorite quote sort of goes with what you said above;

As is often the case, at the centre of such alcohol fuelled loutish behaviour, was an attractive girl...

Oh, silly nerds.
 
What was an attractive girl doing there in the first place?
