'releases'. Our software 'escapes' leaving a bloody trail of
designers and quality assurance people in its wake.

* Our function calls do not have 'parameters' - they have 'arguments'
- and they ALWAYS WIN THEM.

* Debugging? We do not debug. Our software does not coddle the weak.

* Our software does NOT have BUGS. It has FEATURES, and those
features are too sophisticated for one such as you to understand.

* Our users will know fear and cower before our software! Ship it!
Ship it and let them flee like the dogs they are!
