I'm laughing way too hard of this strip 
|

That exact thing happens way to often...
And I've read once that if it happens the door was designed badly, because good design is obvious 
And yes, in terms of bugs I've been there too

I hate those thing.
Like...
Me: "Ehrm, could you help me please, i don't understand why it wont load that uc. Our Errorlogging marked the spot to be here but i don't get it."
Collegue: "Ah yeah let's have a look."
15 minutes later and several nonworking ideas (don't wanna write everything)
Third collegue: "Dude you forgot this over there."
Well we forgot to put a transaction.rollback and dispose it in the exception handling, system broke down after apptempt to save failed...

Happened to me just that week!
I spend like 2 days trying to figure out why my Xamarin Android app was not showing the notification!
It turns out notification don't appear on screen, you have to slide down the notification panel to see them!

Yesterday I was watching a movie with my wife and I loudly express my disbelief at something that happened with a loud WTF. I quickly get a punch to my arm from her and she tells me to be quiet because there is a parrot behind us.
Just as she utters those words my 3 year old repeats those words back in almost perfect English. I cant help to laugh which results in him climbing up the sofa and continues to scream wtf.
This is becoming quite a problem for me because I swear quite a bit but I try to reduce the amount. But when my son uses all these colorful expressions I cant help but to laugh which further reinforces it in him.
A few minutes later he was standing over the dog dancing like they do in Gangnam Style but somehow making it look a lot more like he is humping the air and trying to repeat what they sing. Then in the middle of his wonderful lyrics comes a mother F*cker out of his mouth and well, lets say that I laughed and then got a bruise on my arm.
Sadly I don't see how this will ever go away because he is just so cute and funny that I can't help to laugh and dig an ever deeper hole. I just wonder how long its going to be until we get some uncomfortable questions from daycare.

We had a similar episode with your son when he was young. We put him to bed for the night and then a few minutes later he came out to pronounce he now knows 12 swear words.. And then proceed to rattle them off..
You can only smile..

:laughs:
Oh the irony of punishing bad language with violence.

Irony? Probably the most effective fix for the problem...

I swear a lot. My daughter is remarkably selective in what she hears, and has only sworn once, when she couldn't get her seat belt in when she was about 6. 'Oh for f***s sake!' she muttered under her breath...
You cant help but chuckle!
Now she is 12, and still doesn't swear, ever.
She really has far better standards than me you know.

Reminds me of this very bad movie... Meet The Fockers[^].
Those are his first words and dad isn't very happy about it...
|

I truly fear for my second son. I just hope I can curb myself and my elder son before its too late for him too. Otherwise I might as well change last name to focker and get it over with.

Interesting how people admit they don't want to swear as much but then think it's cute when a kid does it. Swearing is for people who lack vocabulary and class. And no, it's not cute when kids do it. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Nah its cute, and funny but mostly wrong. But I do agree that it's because a lack of vocabulary. Once in my teenage years during a rhetoric class I did a speech about swearing and how it deflates a language and makes it flat.
A swear word is usually something extreme and commonly used to infer that something is extreme in someway. I'm F'cking happy for you instead of i'm overjoyed for you. A person which instead of swearing tries to use the correct words can convey a much wider spectrum of that emotion or just describe something more detailed. Swearing tends to make things rather binary.
As an avid swearer its rather stimulating when making a conscious effort to use a wider width of words. It's a good brain exercise as well as it can help you avoid it, the problem is that once something is made in to a habit its hard to change it.
Whenever I want to change something that's routine in my life I go by something I read once that it takes about 10 weeks to turn an action into a habit. So for example if I wish to make it a habit to take the trash out every morning before work I have to remind myself to do it everyday for 10 weeks before it will stick enough that I can rely on me not forgetting.
If you google "Avoid the word very" you get a neat little list of words which you can use instead of saying something is very and I think that is a good way to also avoid swearing in those situations and also expand your vocabulary.

A harsh and far too sweeping judgement. Of course those who use the same 4-letter word a hundred times a minute fall into that category but an armoury of Anglo-Saxon epithets can also expand vocabulary and, used properly, demonstrate true class. Indeed it is often seen as a mark of aristocracy to wield the well-timed profanity eruditely.
I may have told this story before but it's a good example. A certain football (soccer) referee of my acquaintance who was also a parish priest was the target of some pretty fruity language one Saturday afternoon and responded, "Don't you f*ing swear at me, I'm a vicar!" Smiles all round, situation defused, perfect man management. That looks like class to me.

A rare situation. When it's often enough your little child is cussing up a storm, you got serious problems.

My son has learned all those colorful words from me whilst I'm driving, sadly. On the bright side, he's learning how to use them in the proper context!

Recruiter. 'Nuff said.
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???

Well, somebody did refer you to her....

Kevin has probably pissed off someone!
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

Perhaps she gets paid by the number of mails in her 'Sent' folder.

The words "friggin" and "stupid" are redundant in this context. I had a similar run in with a recruiter some years ago and the final message from me was similar to yours, and the reply almost exactly the same.
