Yep.

Not too long ago I was explaining to people how Garry is both an asshole and bad at coding... now we get to see the unprofessional struggle session.

Like, if you are frustrated that calling methods from your own code base doesn't work... maybe fix your code's utility functions?

Instead of doing one off hackjobs for everything?

Any serious, experienced coder has tendencies toward this or even versions of their code with some of this kind of stuff in it.

... but you fucking clean it up and rewrite the rage with actually helpful documentation, if you actually give a damn about other people who might use it.

As the TF2 Sniper put it:

Professionals have standards.
