Typical conversation with me:

Other person: blah, blah yaddda {hot new feature}

Me: [Hot new feature]! Hmmm… but would that be … I guess it could …. I remember having a problem with [hot new feature] .. Something about having too much fiber in my diet.. No, that’s not right. Maybe if you used [hot new feature] in [the most common way its talked about] that would bypass the fiber limitation I was having. I guess. I can’t remember now. But it was something.

Me @ 2 am the next morning: Oh yeah, I was using [hot new feature] with [unstable build of component X] because [stable build of component X] had a bug with [stable build of component Y]. Nothing at all to do with fiber. What was I thinking?
