How about a coder story?
A friend of mine worked as QA at a large software company, and basically his job was to help the various departments get their code working by troubleshooting it. Well they had this one guy working as a coder who was not at all qualified, and was always doing stupid stuff but no one ever caught him on it.
So he calls my buddy in to check his code. The guy says it's compiling perfectly but he clicks it and nothing happens. So my buddy looks through all the various headers and libraries for any obvious errors because the compiler isn't catching them.
Sure enough he finally checks the main file, and the first line has this
/*
and the last line has this
*/
No wonder it compiled so perfectly.
