Author’s Note: This is done in the style of the popular “S–t ______ Say” videos and articles; I thought it would be a fun twist to include webdesigners in the scope of this meme. Enjoy!

• “REALLY, Photoshop? You decide to crash RIGHT in the MIDDLE of my huge photo edit. Great.”
• “I just woke from the most horrible dream–I dreamed I uploaded index.html and it killed my whole site!”
• “Can I absolutely position this code where the sun don’t shine?”
• “Don’t talk to me right now; I have to finish this pixel alignment first.”
• “Am I REALLY going to have to put this layout in a table format to make it look right?”
• “…*really big sigh* Go away, Internet Explorer. Just go away.”
• “What the–‘Database parsing error?’ Are you KIDDING me?!”
• “Ugh, I can’t go to sleep yet–these two divs just aren’t lining up straight.” (OCD, much? xD)
• “No, I’m not going to the movie tonight. I have to stay home and update my websites…”
• “Parse THIS, MySQL!”
• “Whoever designed this buggy, horrible script deserves a sentence of 15 years–15 years of browsing the Internet with IE 6.”
• “I have never wanted to strangle digital code so badly in my life.”
• “What language am I even coding in anymore? Klingon?!”
• “Okay, there is no reason this code should even work…but it does. Okay, fine, HTML, whatever.”
• “I think I’m tied to the rails that Ruby’s on.” (reference)
• “I’ve tried padding, I’ve tried margins, and I’ve tried absolute positioning. The only thing I haven’t tried is smashing the keyboard with my face.”
• “…Shoot, it works. There IS a God.”
• “Oh, Save button, I love you. Let me count the ways…I love that you save all my grueling HTML edits; I love that you never forget a single keystroke.”

…And Yes, We Really Do Say This Stuff…

Most of these are (sadly) direct quotes from my webdesign experience. Do you have any funny phrases you’ve uttered during your coding experience? Share them in the comments!
