Hey, eight legs is better than one leg and a nub, and there is nothing dear about that. Just saying...

It could be too deer.

What do you call a dear with no eyes?
No idea.
What do you call a dear with no eyes and no legs?
Still no idea.
What do you call a dear with no eyes, no legs and no nads?
Still no elephanting idea.

Are you sure you don't mean a deer? Or is your girlfriend blind?

I'm working on an article based on some stuff I did for work, and I had a rather unique problem to resolve.
The code (at work) uses a control from a commercial WPF control library. I went searching for a free control that did the same thing as the commercial control, and found one, but it sucked so bad that it was unusable. There's even an article about it here on CP, and believe me when I say that I'm exercising all the restraint I can muster not to leave a message for the author telling him how utterly unusable his code is.
That situation left me with nothing but commercial libraries to deal with, such as Telerik, DevExpress, ComponentOne, and others. Whether you've noticed it or not, articles posted on CP that feature/use commercial libraries are generally poorly received, because the application cannot be compiled without the correct and appropriate library assemblies being included in the project.
So, in the interest of trying to support as wide a code base as possible, I architected the article code so that adoption of the programmers chosen control library is as painless as possible.
All library-specific changes are limited to just three small files in a single assembly, and declaring a compiler directive in the assembly's Build properties, and all of the core code in the article's application can remain un-touched as a result.
I think I've restarted the code for the article more than half a dozen times, and refactored the final version twice so far, just to address these concerns. Each restart, and each refactor is the result of trying to write the article, and tripping over code I wrote that imposed seemingly arbitrary requirements that pissed me off as a developer.
100 points will not be enough for this article...

Well, I was actually going to include adoption of the free control along with the commercial libraries, but it's essentially crap.

You could do better, you could fix the article (and the code) of the free control.

That would take a lot longer than just insulting the author...

But wouldn't fixing it be the perfect insult?
