Know what else I'm losing patience with?

- People who EAT MY CHOCOLATE. Listen, folks, this is the only snack in the building that I can currently safely eat. You guys can eat any of the free stuff provided by the company, not only the snacks but also the free lunches provided once a week. I can't eat any of it. Leave my 85% very-low-sugar chocolate alone. It's not hard to tell which is which; the free snacks are in the break area and my chocolate is sitting on my desk.

- People who seriously, totally, MISS THE POINT, either semi-deliberately or because they're simply too wrapped up in themselves to hear what is being said. Let's skip simple e-mail misunderstandings; how about shortening just about every business meeting ever held to half or a third the time?

- Abdominal pain. YAY for better living through chemistry, but holy moly, can I be DONE with this now? I am not going to use these pieces-parts! Not going to happen! Leave me alone!

- Example code that DOES NOT COMPILE, and when massaged until it compiles, DOES NOT RUN. I could eat a handful of ones and zeros and... eh, you know the rest of the quote.

OK. I feel better now.

Sheesh. And this isn't even a Monday.

It probably would. When we get more peanuts in, that'll help; those are usually on the list of snacks, but we've been out of them. I'm not really coming up with much other snacky stuff (sold in the US, anyway) that don't include starch or sugar. Veggies wouldn't last. Today I brought in my smokehouse almonds and a bunch more chocolate -- and I'm gonna hide it all. :-)
