ngl my programming career helped me stay grounded in reality. Every impossible issue turned out to always have a cause, a reason to be there. Could have taken weeks to track down the issue, but there was always a cause.

But still.. every 3 or so years.. something actually impossible pops-up. Impossible to fix, impossible to reproduce, and suddenly gone from existence, as if it was never there.

It ran outta gas. It had a flat tire. It didn't have enough money for cab fare. Its tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from outta town. Someone stole its car. There was an earthquake, a terrible flood, locusts!
