If the people I work with are any indication, becoming a game designer mainly requires a slightly odd hairstyle and the ability to drink copious amounts of alcohol.
Just sayin'... 
(oh, and that last point also applies to us programmers  ) |

And graphics designers, testers, producers, CEOs and the weird guy who lives in our closet 
Yeah, I'm fairly sure that if you work in the games industry, coming into work sober is a fireable offence |

Talking to programmers is like talking to women though, you just can't bloody understand them and their logic
Not to mention most of them suffer from Post Morning Stress all the time.
It's nothing to do with logic - we're all just insane.

Couldn't agree more
Good, then it's settled - programming's nothing to do with logic, and Design should pay for the beer

(disclaimer: I'm a programmer, it's my job to be grumpy towards designers)
Don't forget the producers
*Shakes fist at any producers who happen to be walking by
*Gets some odd looks
*Goes back to pretending to be working
Also: Woo - another programmer! We'll get these designer chappies yet!

Hrhm 
If your design is yours to begin with, it's the design you'll be calling shots on. There's a difference in "designer" and a designer.
Programmers know little if any about design though, mostly they just whine about how things can't be done(when everything can be done) and how things "should work" when they DON'T work
Overpayed for hunting down their own spelling mistakes even! 
No, I'm sorry - we can't do that. It should work like this...
(Or, to quote what one of our designers said this morning:
"All programmers are bastards!"
Hey - I'm not arguing )
