Despite the common assumption that most of these types of people are living at home with Mommy and Daddy I've known several programmers or coders who work from home and basically live like this.

They only really leave the house for groceries or shit like that. Honestly outside of the hygiene aspects I'd kill to rarely need to leave my home.
