Guidlines for Klingon software developers

1. Specifications are for the weak and timid!!

2. This machine is a piece of GAGH! I need dual Pentium processors if I am to do battle with this code.

3. You cannot really appreciate Dilbert unless you've read it in the original Klingon.

4. Indentation?! I will show you how to indent when I indent your skull!

5. What is this talk of 'release'? Klingons do not "release" software. Our software escapes, leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake!

6. Klingon function calls do not have "parameters" - they have "arguments"- and they ALWAYS WIN THEM.

7. Debugging? Klingons do not debug. We do not coddle the weak.

8. I have challenged the entire Quality Assurance team to a Bat'lth contest! They will not concern us again.

9. A TRUE Klingon warrior does not comment on his code.

10. By filing this bug report you have challenged the honour of my family. Prepare to die!

11. You question the worthiness of my code? I should kill you where you stand!

12. Our users will know fear and cower before our software! Ship it! Ship it and let them flee like the dogs they are!

This is going up in the cubicle!
