Congrats! 
IIRC, my hardest to get was Enquirer, because I don't ask many QA questions!

Cheers Man!
You should have your own category to make it fair for the rest of us mere mortals!

I'd suggest it, but it seems "Villiage Idiot" doesn't fit with the rest of the site!

«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

It's already been done. COBOL (anyone here old enough to remember that) was designed as a specification language for end-users to write; the results to be handed over to coders to effectively act as compilers. Then there was VDM - same idea; fourth generation languages etc. The modern equivalent is SEND CODZ PLZ.

I spent quite a lot of time trying to arrange an anagram out of the clue parts.. only words I could find were old Norse swearwords

I know the feeling.
I thought the first two part weren't too bad but I struggled with the creating a meaningful definition. I was going to use scope. but.....

The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

I'm stuck in the office for almost 4 more hours because the first place we went for lunch was so backed up we ended up going somewhere else that seated us right away before turning into a glacier simulation. Meanwhile back at my desk I just spent half an before figuring out why my newest unit test wasn't being run by ReSharper:
[Test]
private void ReticulateTheSplinesTest()
{
var map = GetMapWithoutReticulatedSplines();
map.RetirculateSplines();
Assert.IsTrue(map.SplineStatus == Status.Reticulated);
}
Going to be a really long afternoon. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

The video begins to play.
Two hands reach out of your monitor each with the index finger bent into a hook.
The hooked fingers stab into your eye sockets and gouge the eyeballs out.
They next proceed to reach around the sides of your head and stab your ear drums out as well.
You think these are good things.
To anyone else who's watched my link: Tell me I totally nailed the description.

I'm hiding from people this afternoon for a reason.
It's still an accurate description of the best case outcome of clicking that video link though

The HVAC's been off for the past 100 minutes for "demand curtailment" wrapping myself into something I wouldn't wear outside even when the windchill hit 40 below would not be a good plan.
