Explanations Why Programmers Programs Don't Work
- Did you check for a virus on your system?
- Didn't I fix it already?
- Even though it does not work, how does it feel?
- Has the operating system been updated?
- How is that possible?
- I can't test everything!
- I haven't touched that module!
- I haven't touched that module in weeks!
- I'm almost ready.
- I've never heard about that.
- It must be a hardware problem.
- It will be done in no time at all.
- It worked yesterday.
- It works on my machine.
- It works, but it hasn't been tested.
- It's already there, but it has not been tested.
- It's just some unlucky coincidence.
- It's never done that before.
- Of course, I just have to do these small fixes.
- Oh, it's just a feature.
- Somebody must have changed my code.
- Strange...
- That's weird...
- The machine seems to be broken.
- The user has made an error again.
- There is something funky in your data.
- There is something wrong in your test data.
- There must be a virus in the application software.

- What did you do to make it blow up?
- What did you type in wrong to get it to crash?

- Yes, it will be ready in time.
