As a programmer, I consider The User to be the enemy. No matter how thoroughly I seemingly test my code, the second the user gets their hands on it, it breaks left and right from all the crazy shit they do.

“Huh, I wonder” has been driving general scientific progress and heart failures in engineering since forever.

I was a QA engineer. I think one of the guys on the team I was on developed a stress response from hearing me walk over to his desk.

Lots of "page crashes if the user doesn't have a last name"

"Why wouldn't they have a last name??"

"No idea, but 372 users in the DB don't, and 20 of them were created this month so it's not an old problem"

"incoherent muttering and cursing"

Some cultures don't use last names.
