That's flat out a good flunk.

Ever had that moment when adding a customer requested feature you realize had the original design been done correctly, all you would have to add is one method? No, instead, it's an elephanting mess...
just once, I would like to do something right. No, I'm not modifying my code, but I'm certainly not sinless in this area.
We had one job...

Your post is up-voted, and I'm going to write an article about the issue I'm fixing tonight. I'll post it to W&W. It's a real turd.

Entropy increases.
Tough to design out.

yeah entropy is a bitch, no need to encourage her.

I rarely NOT had that moment... 
Especially with that customer who flunked their DI test and used MEF (which is not a DI library!) 
But the feeling when you have that seemingly huge feature request and you can fix it by introducing a simple class or method is priceless

 I'm not sure if I should laugh or be angry or dismayed...

It's certainly nothing to laugh about.
Getting angry with my (ex-)coworkers probably isn't the way to go either.
So I guess that leaves dismayed.
May I also suggest disappointed?

as my co-consultant said, "shhh, you have the happy joy of fixing it."
