You should tell her you invited your girlfriend who is a little messy to come over and stay with you, and that you were in middle of teaching her (the girlfriend) how to keep the house neat and clean. She (the girlfriend) has just started to pick those things up but she couldn't finish as she (the wife) was back.
You should then politely request her (the wife) to spend a few more days away while she (the girlfriend) can finish with the learning, so next time when she (the wife) returns from vacation, she (the wife) won't find the house messed up. 
Your time will come, if you let it be right.

Get all her friends to come to the house to greet her, then blame them for the mess, after they've left.

That might not be a good explanation for the rumpled sheets in the bedroom...
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

and I could probably write an entire book ripping to shreds the stupid things in that 100 lines of code.
And yes, you really only find this level of BS in people who write Ruby. For all that I complain about other C# code I've had to work on, you rarely see abuses like this. Yes, it can happen, but Ruby has a particular knack for "creating stupid."

Basically. 
I think that pretty much sums it up. It's advertised as a language you can learn really quickly, and so you see a lot of bad practices, no understanding of OO concepts, etc.

So it does not meet the goal:
Wikipedia Ruby is said to follow the principle of least astonishment (POLA), meaning that the language should behave in such a way as to minimize confusion for experienced users.

That's a joke. The abuse of "method_missing", allowing people to write extensions to classes, creates unknown side-effects. OOP is not really implemented in Ruby, it sort of looks OO, but it isn't, and when extending classes with include/extend/require/inherit/load (I can't keep it straight what does what) you get a mess of additional behaviors. C#'s "partial" was tolerable in separating out UI initialization from event handlers and has uses in other ways too, but Ruby really allows the programmer to makes a mess of things.

More importantly, since the winform designer loves to randomly reorder its generated code even when you're not touching the designer itself, it shifts a huge cluster elephant of diff noise out of the files I care about 95% of the time.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Exactly!
And then, ironically, I saw "partial" abused by programmers, oh, let's write these methods here, those methods there, so that our class is smaller and it looks better, and we can just extend our class by adding another file defining a partial class!
