LOL. Do you put it on your monitor instead of your dashboard?
Years ago I worked on an assembly language program that had been written by a guy who was in love with GoTo (Branch in assembler). Not only that, the branch locations were almost random. The program flow didn't even go downward in the waterfall style -- it percolated! Another of his favorites was to branch to a location, which executed a few instructions and then branched back to the instruction following the first call. Obviously he was not up to speed with the basic concepts. One of my colleagues came up with the perfect appellation for this guy: shoemaker.
