The Lyrics
The longhair writing code
In-side
Of Windows
Will leave some bugs in there
I've seen that code - it blows
It always leads me where
My PC won't go
My screen turned blue tonight
Screen-Of-Death
Washed away
All my unsaved work here
Tried but could not save
Now I sit here in tears
My work's blown away
Many times on PC clones
I've seen my Windows die
Any way you'll never know
How many times I've cried
And so I'm blaming that
Longhaired nerd
Writing code
Scratching his itchy 'nads
While stroking his keyboard
My PC froze so bad
Had to yank the cord
( instrumental )
And still I'm blaming that
Longhaired geek
Writing code
Eating his Snickers there
And leaving bugs in code
Don't buy this guy's software
I've heard he licks toads
(Eww - bleah, bleah, bleah!)

I just know that nerdy, geeky type that writes this stuff. Why are they all so weirded out? Nice parody. 5 debugs you get.
You got problems, Johnny? a good one. 5's
Thank you, Guy and Adagio - nope, no problems here, Adagio - I'm running Windows XP Professional with ( I think ) all of the up-to-date service packs...wait a minute...uh-oh...what's that thing at the bottom of the screQq3jq3-40gs'lv nqw'AE###################################
Hehehe, Johnny...don't freak!!
JD - I think your system crashed. Can you read this through that blue screen?

Well, speaking as a longhair who writes code, I would like to point out that it's only short-haired programmers who put bugs into code: we pony-tailed types have passed beyond into guru-dom ;-)
"WE" pony-tailed types, Phil ? Hey man, are you, like, one of "us", dude? Allllll right !!! Thank you, Swami Alexander !
JD, don't tell me you're another pony-tailed programmer who writes parodies? Are we a cliché, or what?
PA, I kid you not, sir, at this moment I am taking a little break at my Dilbert workstation to write you this comment. Yes, I have had a ponytail since the early 1990's. I worked for many years doing Cobol and Cics programming in the financial services industry, and then I got my first "pure" software engineering job - and when I was hired for that job, my ponytail reached down below the top of my belt. I have since trimmed it back - it now reaches about half-way down my shoulder-blades. Far out, man! So we are both longhairs writing code - life imitating art imitating life imitating parody imitating art imitating life etc etc etc LOL !! ;-D
Get back, longhaired nerd. Your motherboard's waiting for you.
It's been my experience that the long-hairs just refer to their bugs as features, and pass off fixing them onto more capable engineers.
Well said, ChuckyG. In spite of my long hair, I do a lot of what we call "continuing engineering", which is a euphemism for exterminating someone else's features without making them lose face.
Johnny D - A software engineer! Well that goes a long ways toward explaining all your virtual virtues. Good parody. Here's a logic exercise: I did vote before coming to the comments section. Carefully study the "Voting breakdown section" to determine what score I gave you. (You folks at home - play along on your "Home Version").
Thank you, Paul ! Heh heh trick question heh heh heh you no canna foola me there ain't no Sanity Clause heh heh heh
Thanks, MP.
Johnny...you are a card tonight!
Thank you, Adagio - the Joker, as always, the Joker.... ;-D
