I hate people who ignore compiler warnings and just check in code anyway.

I LOVE giving that answer. You immediately throw a wrench in the gears, and the whole process shuts down. The longer they planned for the interaction, the harder the machine stops :^D
Yeah, talk about total deer in the headlights look.

That is a good idea. Put the phrase after.

"You smell bad, but I don't mean to be rude."
Why not cover all your bases and say it before and after?

"I don't mean to be rude, but you smell bad, but I don't mean to be rude."

I occasionally consider saying this, but don't. 95% of the times I consider it, it's when I go around the corner in the grocery store and... old lady perfume. Their olfactory senses are shot, thus they're bathing in the stuff. As soon as you get within 20 feet, you're gagging.

Why the hell can't one of their relatives be frank with them? It'd be doing them a favor.

I just wanted to ask a question. I hope you don't take it the wrong way but you're a bunch of assholes.

:hmm: I think this explains some of why Linux is the way it is.

Some people just keep the gears right on turning, mashing the wrench into an unrecognizable, contorted mass of metal. On goes the question.
