I don't laugh at programming themed cartoons

Quitting isn't your only option, you know. Drinking heavily and often is another. Or, if you're in Wales, you could raise sheep for, erm... recreation.:~

After reading your bio - Yes. It is time to quit*, any profession... *Based on your bio, yous should be somewhere over 70, so it is time to start a life...
Skipper: We'll fix it. Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this? Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

With no bio, I can't be sure - but if it is assumed that you're new to this business, then as soon as you get some real experience (and possibly slit the throat of a user and/or manager or two) you'll understand. If not, there's always a job selling artisinal ice cream treats to grouchy assholes. You need to worry about cartoons there, too. click[^]

Your seventh post in nine years is that you don't have a sense of humor? You should really work on your presentation skills ;p

I've been to Wales. The one-and-a-half lane roads frightened me going around curves. Especially when I forgot to drive on the left side.

I believe that having a sense of humor and getting programming jokes are mutually exclusive concepts. I don't believe one can have both. And you are exaggerating. I'm pretty sure I've made at least 10 comments here in the last 9 years.

I guess that proves you have SOME sort of humor... :)

He wrote 'many', not 'all'. Otherwise, given that some CP'ers are in their 70s already, he would have to be approximately 100 years old! :laugh:

Wait, what? This is an option that's available to us?
You're usually allowed only three per year. In Canada, however, you're only aloud to shake your finger at them whilst speaking crossly.

You misunderstood! It doesn't matter if the customer is Canadian or not. If the developer is Canadian he/she must remain polite at all times. Even the bit about speaking crossly to those who deserve to have their face microwaved took a special vote of parliament and their mother's permission.
