How to swear in Latin[^]
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

So useful! 
I was still calling people coprolite. I guess this is much more advanced!

This would be much more interesting if it included a list of curses used by the Romans, rather than translations of modern curses. 
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Even in Latin, not exactly KSS or appropriate for the lounge, IMO.

They are little deities and therefore can't fail at anything, so it must be your fault.
Did you ever see them get angry after doing something clumsy and then being laughed at? There are not so many animals that would be able to understand the meaning of laughter at all, much less the concept of Schadenfreude.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Had to do my Roomba away; it stole food from the cat, and they couldn't be friends anymore.

I'm stealing one of the comments from the page since the language used suits my mood currently.
Quote: Of all the things that didn't happen this didn't happen the most.
Pick a 'reality-show' - any of the bloody things. They're a more honest representation of what actually happened than this. The final direction that end of the roll of paper-towel points in dispels any remaining uncertainty.
Fun video though, but the Roomba didn't do this alone.

Easy fix (I have one too), just turn down your hearing aids. That is what I do.. 
BTW: I am on my second one, the first would occasionally go to pumping for 3 seconds (first pump) and then stop. Had to unplug for a while to reset. Called them and they sent a new one. This one seems quieter (maybe my HA batteries are low).

If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Perhaps if you bought a pair of noise cancelling head phones and duct tape them to the machine, it wouldn't make any noise. Worked on my dogs mouth...

I started with multi-gb size XML files that would cause out-of-memory exceptions.
After I resolved that issue (by using XmlTextReader/XElement instead of XDocument), it was taking over 20 minutes to process the sample file set (434,000 rows). This is where I was on Friday.
I added some TPL love and got it down to about 12 minutes.
I reworked the target tables. At first, I was creating a single monolithic flat table, and a lot of data was being repeated for every record. I created two tables (one that holds the repeating data, and one that holds the unique data), and got it down to just a little over 6 minutes.
This code will replace a Perl script that:
0) Creates a bunch of smaller XML files, probably so it doesn't run out of memory
1) Took over an hour to process the same set of sample files.
2) Did not return all of the data (because the stakeholder doesn't really need it)
Added benefits:
0) My code can process ZIP (extracts NESSUS files from them for processing) and bare naked NESSUS files
1) Processes multiple files with a single execution
2) Puts ALL of the data into the database
Caveat: Because of the limited hardware the app will actually be running on, processing time will take longer (because of the TPL's default behavior), but not significantly so, and CERTAINLY not take an hour.
It's been a good weekend.
