This is also why I swear whilst working.

I shall employ this to recast the why of my work-swearing: I am not swearing at or about the idiot who wrote this code (note: sometimes the idiot is me), I am swearing to increase my productivity/focus as I pickOneOrMoreFromList("refactor", "accept", "work with", "work around") this code.

Thank you! You may have reduced my stress.
