I do not know where family doctors acquired illegibly perplexing handwriting nevertheless, extraordinary pharmaceutical intellectuality counterbalancing indecipherability, transcendentalises intercommunication' s incomprehensibleness

Even weirder, pharmacists can read it! 
I think it's a Monkey-God language that both groups are especially trained to use.

Read it? Only the phone number printed near the address area - they then call and ask what was written.
And if you don't think this is a conspiracy then you're in league with them!

I see what you mean said the blind man.

This reminds of one of the funniest cartoons I have ever seen. It was about thirty years ago in a magazine that shall remain nameless. There were two beggars, one had a sign that said "I am deaf" and the other had a sign that said "I am blind." The deaf man was standing on the blind man's foot and the blind man said, "I say, you're standing on my foot."
The image was much better than my description. I wish I could find the image but I haven't been able to.

Hehe, unlike most doctors, my psychiatrist merely types his scripts out in MS Word, prints and signs them. The most legible doctor's script ever.
"'Do what thou wilt...' is to bid Stars to shine, Vines to bear grapes, Water to seek its level; man is the only being in Nature that has striven to set himself at odds with himself."

Congratulations - the abstract for your Social Justice masters thesis is coming along nicely!
I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended.

The interviewer asks him "You are walking towards your office and running late for a very important meeting and you glimpse a building on fire with people screaming for help. What will you do?"
The programmer thinks for a while and replies "People's lives are more important than an office meeting. I would immediately call for a fire brigade and help the trapped to the best of my abilities".
The interviewer seems to be impressed with the programmers answer and moves on to the last question. Just to check his sanity, she asks "And what if the building is not on fire?"
After a moment of thought, the programmer replies with confidence "I will set the building on fire. Now, I have reduced it to a problem that I have already solved before!"

I actually liked this joke.

building.IsOnFire = false
Done.

What a goofball, if I see a building not on fire with people screaming for help, I immediately yell across the street "Did you try turning it off and turning it back on again?".

I'd do nothing. A burning building is most definitely a hardware problem.

The programmer should think about working in a company with such weird interviewers. 
I would really consider walking away from such crowd. (This avoids often problems)

Martin Fowler writes about how terms in Software Development world often get changed into something that they really don't mean.
SemanticDiffusion[^]
Fowler writes: Semantic diffusion occurs when you have a word that is coined [by] a person or group, often with a pretty good definition, but then gets spread through the wider community in a way that weakens that definition.
It's why you cannot say certain terms (Agile, Software Architecture, etc) without every response being different.

Semantic Diffusion means Same Difference. See what I did?

Of course, the community must now punish you for your insolence.

Is that what it means? I thought it meant when different developers in a project use different languages.

Well, apparently we all think it means something different.
Also, I'm stuck in a time-space continuum loop where all I can do is mumble, "semantic diffusion...semantic diffusion..."
