KT: So, how's the cluster script going?
Me: Ummmm. Not good.
KT: Here, let me take a look.

*tries to run the thing, notes that script ends because computer runs out of memory--even though we have 4 gigs of RAM installed*

KT: Huh. Let's try that again. Uh oh! The computer seems to be frozen.
Me: Whoops.
KT: Congratulations!! You have a great potential career ahead of you as a hacker! All you have to do is package this thing up and send it out as a worm!

*both laugh hysterically*

(Note: Some people might find "compliments" like this maddening, but I like them--that's the way my dad, my siblings and I communicate with each other. If you aren't teasing someone, you don't like them.)
