The elitist attitude may also have something to do with the inverse relationship between spending time programming and spending time socializing. If all one doing in your days is programming a computer, i.e. telling it what to do, one needn't to utilize the more mamallian soft-logic that goes behind social interactions. So one will start to become a bit dull in those areas, and consequently will start to offend people out of being in 'logic mode.'
