You know when you get hung up on a tiny insignificant coding problem, that you KNOW isn't your fault, but can't quite seem to fix.. Even though you know you can probably get away with ignoring it. But it niggles away and you keep going back to it, trying to solve the issue that isn't your fault, even though you can't fix it..? That...

And then, somehow, you manage to fix the impossible bug.

You let go of the mouse, free your fingers from the keyboard, and sit back, staring into the apparently working code.

Is that it? Is it working now? Have I finally fixed that bug?!

... I daren't touch anything! I'm going to go watch some telly and leave the system doing a backup!!

Most weeks that sorta thing happens to me, usually after a few frustrated "grrs" the problem gets fixed

Yup, been there just yesterday, recently converted our invoicing systems to PDF from janky HTML and, all of a suddden, on one machine in the office, part of it refuses to print, everything else, all other machines, prints fine. Of course, it would be the boss' machine!
