Fixing bugs all day for work can be rewarding though. Fixing bugs at 3am for the assignment that's due that day, not so much.

It's not real computer science unless it's 11:45pm with an assignment due at midnight that keeps seg faulting for no apparent reason.

Better to leak that to segfault, take this:
#define free(x)

It says looking at bugs all day. That state where you slowly realize that you have no idea how to fix them or what even causes them.
