I have programmed some primitive HTML and CSS once and didn’t really like it.
This might seem pedantic, but HTML and CSS are not “programming”, they are markup languages for formatting text, images etc. A definition of programming might be using a language like Python (or Javascript, for webpages) to make a computer solve some problem/conduct some calculation, and HTML/CSS don’t fit this. So, don’t take your experience with those and think that that is what “programming” is like.
This comment doesn’t deserve to be voted down, s/he is perfectly right.
I have also tried some javascript and disliked it even more. It drives me nuts to not find an error in my code and the act of finally finding and fixing it doesn’t feel as rewarding as it should be to make that kind of work enjoyable to me. I can totally see how people love this kind of work but I simply haven’t warmed up to it.
I hardly ever get aggressive but boy does fixing stuff for IE6 get my blood boiling...
