I think this is a well intentioned student project that is just easy to misinterpret. It seems to be related to Miami Ad School Europe.
I think the intent is to target programmers and suggest that men who use Axe body spray will be popular with girls, although I can see how it could also be interpreted to suggest that if you can understand pseudo code then you should stop programming so much and get a girl friend.
Having said that, it is clearly sexist by assuming that a person who understands pseudo code must be a man (or a lesbian I guess).
I have a hard time thinking of a single single male IT in my surroundings. When you get older than 25 the above average salary and brains do wonders for successful dating.
Nothing offensive, but I would have appreciated using Solarized, Source code pro and writing actual compilable code. It shows attention to details, research and respect to the community that you advertise to.

if(you.understand(this)) { return get.a.girlfriend(); }
Also what is the point of having one more girlfriend? I have barely time for Fallout: New Vegas with my current :(

"Compiler? I don't even know her!"
... that's offensive to programmers.
