This example conversation is taken from the aMule development channel, where we plan global domination and monkey-slaving.

<Xaignar> I was thinking of it was a fucked translated string

<Kry> wxString CastItoSpeed(uint32 bytes)

<Kry> {

<Kry> if (bytes < 1024)

<Kry> return wxString::Format(wxT("%u %s"), bytes, _("bytes/sec"));

<Kry> else if (bytes < 1048576)

<Kry> return wxString::Format(wxT("%.2f %s"), bytes / 1024.0, _("kB/s"));

<Kry> else

<Kry> return wxString::Format(wxT("%.2f %s"), bytes / 1048576.0, _("MB/s"));

<Kry> }

<Kry> this one crashes to

<Kry> get the pattern?

<Xaignar> Yes! Functions are unstable! We must move everything into main()!

<Kry> yup

<Kry> let's go.

<Xaignar> But! Main is a function! We are doomed! Doomed!

<Kry> DOOMED I SAY!

* Kry pokes uberpenguin

<Xaignar> We must switch to asm immediatly!

<Kry> asm has functions!

<Xaignar> Fuck it! We'll have to write our own functionless OS!

<Kry> we can't!

<Kry> because to write it, we have to use a program, and programs hav functions!

<Kry> hence poisoning all!

<Xaignar> No! There is hope! We just need a magnetic needle and a steady hand!

<Kry> or or we can search for those card-oriented programming old computers!

<Xaignar> But I hardly know any cardgames!

<Kry> Nor do I!

<Kry> DOOMED I SAY!

<Kry> let's use monkey to code

<Kry> bugginess of function will be nullified by cooleness-fu of monkeys.

<Xaignar> But where will we get the bananas!?

<Xaignar> And how will we stop strangers from punching our monkeys!?

<Kry> we can use banana-flavoured siroup on strangers, and monkeys will eat them.

<Kry> see, 2 problems solved-

<Xaignar> But eating guillible end-users will surely cause the monkeys to become so fat that they can't hold the hole-punchers!

<Kry> you're wrong, because the monkeys are always using those hamster-like-wheels to power the computers

<Kry> making a truly independent environment.

<stefanero> Kry, shoudl we maybe include amps in our sourcecode? to be able to "fix" it a little faster ;)

<-- Kry has kicked stefanero from #amulecoders (don't interrupt global domination plans!)

And uh, yeah, it's like that everyday.
