DEFECT12655: Blog poster stretches metaphor beyond the breaking point. Runtime exception.


As if that weren't enough, he actually mixed two metaphors: debugging the code and using a computer.


The author's mind is beyond debugging, and needs a complete rewrite.


Ok, it may not be a perfect, or even a close to perfect parallel, but it does get the point across. I for one am guilty of spending way to much time running around doing stuff instead of stopping and spending time processing what really matters. A mental "defrag" if you will.
