Saw this article on Andrew Allemann's Domain Name Wire and had a bit of a laugh.
And I also had to admit that some of them are so true .........
Loved some of the comments as well:
Any more to add?

8 observations about domainers
Sound familiar?
They say there is a hint of truth in every stereotype. With that in mind, I present eight observations about domainers. Sure, they may be about the stereotypical domainer, but I’m sure you’ll nod your head to at least a few of them.
1. While companies think domain names are less important than they really are, Domainers think domains are more important than they really are.
2. Domainers always assume the worst about actions their service providers (e.g. parking companies, registrars) take.
3. Domainers think everyone is trying to screw them.
4. Domainers find it difficult to let a domain they registered long ago expire, even if they realize it’s never going to be worth something. Letting go of sunk costs is difficult.
5. Domainers think trademark holders are always in the wrong.
6. Domainers all have at least one domain in their portfolio that they now realize they overpaid for.
7. Domainers also have one offer to buy that they rejected and now wish they could accept.
8. Domainers think that just because they own a good domain they can create a great web site.
Loved some of the comments as well:
- "Domainers always think their domain is more valuable then everyone else does".
- “Estibot undervalues my names”.
