Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

New Oh, that's not COBOL. I can write that kind of code in Java.
Would you like fries with that?

New That KIND of code, sure.
It was still written in COBOL. I can tell, it sent a shiver down my spine.
