Once upon a time there where three pointers..

Once upon a time there were 3 pointers. The Papa pointer pointed to a big array. The Mama pointer pointed to a double precision floating-point. And the Baby pointer pointed to a little integer. One day they all entered a function, and a little lost pointer named Goldilocks entered their house (affectionately known as main()). Goldilocks was hungry so she called strcpy() to copy Papa's array into herself. Her calls to malloc() slowed the main program to a near standstill, but Goldie didn't care. She then went for Mama's double precision floating-point. But before she could get Baby's integer, the three pointers came back, and they were so angry at Goldie's thievery that they caused a run-time error and the whole house caved in.

The above actually happened. I'm not kidding. Really.

In other words: OH MY GOD MY PROGRAM CRASHED AGAIN, IT WAS DUE THIS MORNING AND IT DOESN'T WORK! I HATE C. I NEVER WANT TO SEE ANOTHER POINTER AS LONG AS I LIVE. DOWN WITH KERNIGHAN AND RITCHIE!

P.S. After I wrote this I got the %&^%*$ program to work. I think it wanted to spite me.

There are female programmers, but they are all ugly dykes that eventually get sex change operations because no men want them.
