Strong disagree. "Keep writing bugs" makes OP sound experienced, self-deprecating, and not self-serious. These are good things.

Yeah, if there were no bugs, this application would lose its purpose, lmao.

Yeh it is funny. Even the best will let a bug slip in every now and again. For most of us they're just part of the process

I recall a quarterly review that fit "actually getting work done" into the fad-of-the-week by breaking it down into

* fix old bugs * write new bugs * ship bugs to customers

(mid 90s, "dash process" I think? it actually reflected good understanding of the methodology and helped kill it off :-)
