    Have you ever debugged your app, asking yourself why it doesn't perform like it should just to find out that you haven't implemented the OnClick event of the Button which should call the method which is intended to make the app do what you want it to? I just did :| .

    You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

    Well, everybody brainfarts from time to time, so do not feel stupid. Plus, that one seems pretty obvious to debug.

        I think once or twice, the opposite has happened to me. Implemented an method, but then forgot to add the method call, and then wonder why my breakpoints aren't hitting. :|

                  Don't feel bad. I just found a create table statement with an extra comma that caused an infinite loop. The statement was added over 4 months ago. Unfortunately, it was discovered on a client remote. :doh:

                    Genius me started to look for a bug in the TCP Client/Server implementation - For 15 minutes until I reckoned that the client's send method was never called - I think you can guess why :~.

                        Once, I implemented a mail client/server in Java long back (around 2002 I think). I found that no mails are being sent. I started putting System.out messages everywhere (No debugging tools :(. Used to use notepad to write code). Finally to find out that the sendMail method was never called. Took around 30 minutes to find that that line was commented by me the previous day to do some fast coding+debugging on UI feature. :)

                            I did that in a demo to a new client but then quickly thinking on feet savd the day. I loudly yelled "So, this is how we debug, folks... Who wants to have coffee break?"....

                                I do something of the like. I write functions and spend quite some time making sure it works fine and it won't blow up on me. Then I go to debug the darn thing to see if it works only to find that I didn't even called the function where I should. So I'm just left with a function that isn't called anywhere and wondering why the hell the darn thing doesn't work. Just last week I did this 3 times in the same day (it was a bad day).

                                  You're not supposed to click things any more, anyway, not when you've got greasy fingers that can tap.

                                    I used to (and still do) have an issue with semicolons when coding in C/C++. I will get so used to placing them at the end of each line that I will inadvertently put one at the end of an if/while/for statement and then try to figure out why the following code only ran once.

                                        Have you ever debugged your app, asking yourself why it doesn't perform like it should just to find out that you haven't implemented the OnClick event of the Button which should call the method which is intended to make the app do what you want it to? I just did :| .

                                        You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

                                          No, but I've found those kind of things while doing manual testing...and then I don't feel so bad when I miss a test scenario. It's not always that easy to second-guess users.

                                          Don't look now but a QA Engineer just snuck in...
