Don't give up now! Don't let the damn bugs win! Stand up and fight! For honour! For glory! Kill em all! Take no prisoners! And also refactor your code and write comments and tests where they actually improve maintainability...

If it helps to hear about other people having issues, my wife has broken her elbows and wrists and will have to spend the next 6 weeks at home doing nothing (will likely lose that summer job too). I will also have to stay at home to look after her, all the while trying to finish a project that absolutely has to be released in 5 weeks.
Oh, and our vacation is likely cancelled.
I'll put the kettle on, we'll all get through this communal hell together. -
@ojt-rant oh shit that sounds like a hellish injury! Hopefully she’ll recover fast!!!!

@DeepHotel Thanks. She's been in hospital for a week. One elbow was broken in 3 places! I'd love to tell you she did it doing something cool like extreme downhill biking...rather than simply walking in to and over a small concrete bollard on the pavement.
To be fair, she has had atleast 12 months without an injury, so she was due something. -
@ojt-rant That sounds a lot like a real clumsiness issue, smombieism, or both. Maybe treating the real cause could significantly reduce the maintenance costs of your wife...

@Oktokolo sometimes it's just bad luck.
My best friend and I have this talent...
Normal people: Dangerous items fall down.
Us: Dangerous item falls down, shatters, ricochets, hits us three times, we struggle, grab the next best item to not fall, suddenly whole room demolished as just in this second the item decided to not be anchored to the wall anymore.
... You know, just the common things? XD -
@Oktokolo it's a flaw with her model. We don't even think it'll be fixed in any future version.
Feeling defeated at the moment
