- “If everyone thought this way, many really great projects would never have been started, because their authors would be so bogged down by maintenance work they'd never do anything new. Take a look at John Resig's projects page:
  http://ejohn.org/projects/
  Click on anything that's not a JavaScript project, and you get a broken link. Would you rather he spend time fixing them up, or would you rather he spend time improving JQuery?”

- <coworker> ugh where are you
  <coworker> I need to know what size waist [our CEO] is
  <secretary> I do not have that information
  <secretary> I'm not his seamstress
  <coworker> do you have his seamstresses number?
  <coworker> wait, you also work at ann taylor, can't you look at him and guess?
  <secretary> no
  <secretary> I think women who are picking up size 10s look similar to my size
  <secretary> I wear a 0 or a 2 at AT
  <secretary> clearly I can't tell what size people are
  <coworker> would it be weird if I just asked him what size pants he wears?
  <secretary> yes
  <secretary> he's also not here
  <coworker> dangit
  <coworker> well I don't know what to do now
