#306: Orphaned Projects explain

[Voices are coming from behind a door with a sign that reads “Debian Linux HQ.”]
First voice: Problem: One of the volunteer developers has a date this weekend. Dates lead to romance. Romance leads to orphaned projects.
Second voice: What’s the plan?
First voice: We’re hiring him a relationship coach. He’s like Will Smith in “Hitch,” but he only gives bad advice.
[Black Hat is talking to Cueball, who is standing in front of a mirror.]
Black Hat: Okay, remember: The key to conversation is constructive criticism.
Black Hat: You need to show you’re smart enough to solve her problems.
Cueball: Makes sense.
