Error'd: Pub Kick

from The Daily WTF on (#63669)

Last week's article nearly exposed to the public the lowest-keytechreligious war that has been waging for decades. PEBKAC versus PEBCAK completely underwhelmsthe emacs vs vi war, the GUI vs CUI massacre, the tabs vsspaces schism, and even the -- + // alliance against the/* and (* comment markers. Scratch a PEBCAK partisan andall you'll find is a bit of blood and a response of "OW! Why did you do that?! There isn't any war!!" Even thepartisans deny it exists but it simmers. It's PEBKAC, Itell you. PEBKAC! Wait, I forgot. Which did I use inlast week's article?

Plotzed publican Peter G. has tired of his local and decidedhe'd rather pop round todas Lokal for a schnitzel.

No slouch he, sot Johannes tipples like a man:at home, alone. Low on supply, he went online for a bev."I know, Austrians (No kangaroos here) do like beer.But the comparative price is normally calculated to 1 Liter or 1 KG.Surely not 500 Liter (132.08603 Gallons)." Bloody oath, mate! That's a lifetime supply of Egger Marzen!

Sober and studious Rob broke out a new pen to composea longhand letter, but quickly caved to the convenience ofour online submission form. Not so much an EBKAC as a WiTCh(Trouble 'twixt Wig and Chin), Rob elaborates."School is about to start, and the school has madethe Student and Parent handbook available, witha qr code on the school website. If only someone clevercould invent an easier way for a website to refer to some other content on that website.Note also the helpful mouse-over text."

For our penultimate posting, peckish backer Rich Di C. pondered "I am sure there's a test case reading Ensure text appears on side of carton. CHECK!"I'm starving for a juicy acronym to name this.

Finally, flat Emmet H. cheeped out "One would like to think that the developers of online bankingportals are above average, and held to a higher standardthan your average web dev. One would be wrong." That's stillenough dosh for one each of Johanne's coldies, E. Prost!
