Yours is the only world where:

 treating others like objects is actually encouraged
 being treated as objects, others are generalized and then divided up in
   classes
 you don't make anything by yourself; you mess with things you inherit 
 multiple inheritance?!  How greedy can you get?
 just because someone declares you a friend, you go mess with their
   private stuff
 typecasting is a normal thing
 you go around giving birth to (constructing) things without planning to
  support them
 you go around killing (deleting) things without remorse
 you don't feel a bit guilty about overloading an operator 
 you like throwing things around for others to catch instead of handing
   things to them nicely
 you're always pointing at others
 there are always exceptions for any function you perform
 comments that are normally used to express feelings are used instead
  to force others from doing their things
 you're always critical of others' sizes
 you end your statements with semicolons instead of periods
 you actually consider lazy evaluation
