programming is for the Gods, QA is for people who can't program.

http://digg.com/programming/Top_20_repl ... don_t_work
Top 20 replies by Programmers to Testers when their programs don't work
LOL
To bypass the blatant blogspam for everyone else :
20. "That's weird..."
19. "It's never done that before."
18. "It worked yesterday."
17. "How is that possible?"
16. "It must be a hardware problem."
15. "What did you type in wrong to get it to crash?"
14. "There is something funky in your data."
13. "I haven't touched that module in weeks!"
12. "You must have the wrong version."
11. "It's just some unlucky coincidence."
10. "I can't test everything!"
9. "THIS can't be the source of THAT."
8. "It works, but it hasn't been tested."
7. "Somebody must have changed my code."
6. "Did you check for a virus on your system?"
5. "Even though it doesn't work, how does it feel?
4. "You can't use that version on your system."
3. "Why do you want to do it that way?"
2. "Where were you when the program blew up?"
1. "It works on my machine"
"programming is for the Gods, QA is for people who can't program."

Good list - I particularly like the '200 commands'

I'd also like to add RUTE (Rute Users Tutorial & Exposition)

Well, either way, I added a link to this topic from the somewhat rough HelpForLinuxNewbies wiki page.

Also, check out more Puppy help resources.
