Modus Priori

A stick-figure stands in front of a mirror saying "What's more important to wear to a wedding?" He is holding pants in one hand and a shirt in another. In the background, socks, a tie, and underpants can be seen draped over the edge of the bed. Caption: "It's not always important to prioritize."

All Saturday Stories and Sunday Comics are works of pure fiction. Any similarity between persons depicted therein is purely coincidental.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, no entry is about any person in particular.

These are common themes that run throughout a great many software development organizations.

If you think something in here is about you, you are mistaken...but you should probably look into whatever it is that makes you think that.
