Humor live aus Amerika:

[I]There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed his desire to become a great writer. When asked to define "great" he said, "I want to write stuff that the whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional level. Stuff that will make them scream, cry, and howl in pain and anger!"
      
He now works for Microsoft, writing error messages.[/I]

:program: n.
1. A magic spell cast over a computer allowing it to turn one's input into error messages.
2. An exercise in experimental epistemology.
3. A form of art, ostensibly intended for the instruction of computers, which is nevertheless almost inevitably a failure if other programmers can't understand it.

The jargon file, it is fine, read it...

[I]The businessman dragged himself home and barely made it to his chair before he dropped, exhausted. His sympathetic wife was right there with a tall cool drink and a comforting word.
     
"My, you look tired," she said. "You must have had a hard day today. What happened to make you so exhausted?"
     
"It was terrible," her husband said, "The computer broke down[/I] (sicher Windows ;) ) [I]and all of us had to do our own thinking."[/I]

Merkt Euch diese Geschichte gut, denn manchmal ist sie gar kein Witz... ;)
