Programming Zit

When you sit too long slinging code, and you get a zit on your ass, therefore making it hard to get a project done.
if (asscheek =~ /zit/) {

coding->squirm_in_discomfort();

}

else {

pop->that_bitch();

}

print "programming zit dealt with\n";

Pair Programming

A computer programming technique/practice where two programmers work together to improve their code through mutual code review.

Sometimes criticised due to its abuse by less competent individuals to shelter their lack of ability under the protection of a mentor. Such abuse traditionally involves the two 'programmers' being physically present together at all times the code is worked on... and perhaps some man loving.
Tom: Where were you all afternoon?
Dick: Pair programming with Harry.
Tom: Aaah /wink

Kevin: I did patch it.
John: Well it has more bugs now.

faith based programming

Faith based programming is what happens when a programmer isn't smart or capable enough of writing good code that they pray whatever they did actually works. In early years, programmers would put a lot of debug statements, no-op loops, etc in code that somehow created the magic timing for it to work.
Programmer 1: Did you ever fix that bug we talked about yesterday?

Programmer 2: Ya, well sort of. I just added a few debug statements and it went away

Programmer 1: Oh, I get it, you are doing a little Faith Based Programming?

Programmer 2: Yep, even though I can't see it, I believe the problem has somehow gone away...
