This is why most coders are far more efficient rewriting something from scratch than they are modifying other people's code.

Today I sent my parents a little (Dutch) joke article about how people want regional and 'fair' and 'honest' E numbers like colors, preservatives, flavor enhancers etc.
Stuff like 'traditional sorbic' and 'healthy sulfur dioxide' right from your local farmers.
Jokingly asked my parents if they joined the hype.
My father sent the following back:
"I produce software with regional fabricated E-rrors.
Genuine yet indigestible.
So yes I've joined the hype!"

I didn't notice it either. So, you really write the code that "we" need? Can I send you the requirement? 
You have just been Sharapova'd.

I definitely will! Thanks!
Still not sure where I will go for lunch/dinner, but I am leaning towards Nine Irish Brothers[^], as I love their food, as does my mother.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Dear Sergey and Larry,
Version 45.0.2454.37 beta-m (64-bit) on Win 8.1 / 64
The last ten days Chrome is frequently "seizing up," refusing to accept keyboard input ... yet, at the same time continuing to respond to mouse actions ... closing, and re-starting, Chrome takes care of that.
Then there's the frequent failures to load pages; interestingly: some of the error pages shown by Chrome have a "Reload Page" button, and others do not ... the ones that do not present what appears to be an old early Mac super-lo-fi-big-pixel crash icon ... nice touch of humor there.
I don't mean to sound like I am not abjectly grateful for this wonderful service that reads my e-mails to figure out things I don't need, and reminds me how frugal I am by presenting advertisements for these things I don't need so I can have the self-affirming experience of rejecting them.
But, well, things are a little tight lately; with Johnny having the shakes and all he can't keep pedaling the electricity generator long enough to keep Mama's respirator going, and little Suzi's guide-dog, Benjamin, got in the pantry and ate some of the amphetamines we been feeding Johnny which ended up with animal-welfare officers coming out here and citing us.
So, Sergey and Larry ... I know you're reading this ... please understand if I seem a little critical it's probably just a side-effect of how things are, and, after all, I do understand that the journey that is the reward of building software that's "insanely great" is going to have some speed-bumps.
Perhaps ... since I'm beta-testing for you ... a free ChromeBook is in order here ?
your suffering fan, Bill

Hahahahahahahaha!
Think yourself lucky that they aren't Micro$oft - you have to pay to be a beta tester there!
I think they call it the Regular Test Marketing version...

I never miss it, I have a great memory for dates.
That is why the Missus and I were out and got so pissed Friday night. No going out on a Monday night as work gets in the way.
