From the FA:

  ...should the width of the main column be 60%? 58%? 57%? 
  And so on, until you find something that works. It's like
  being a toddler trying to bang differently shaped block
  into the holes of an educational toy. You bang and bang 
  and scream a bit and bang some more and suddenly the block
  fits - but you've no idea why.
Thank you, The Guardian, for explaining to the masses what 'programming' means and destroying my chances to look respectable at London parties.


"It's like being a toddler trying to bang differently shaped block into the holes of an educational toy."

Toddler is the level 1 of any discipline... Isn't it grand that we can enjoy the experience of being a toddler multiple times in our life?
