Is it cold in here?:
So Marigold didn't murder her parents for the insurance money to support her WoW addiction?
Interesting insecurity there: Dora has acted humble about her computer skills in the past.
Akima:
"The code itself isn't that bad. I mean, for an amateur."
Ooooh! Burn! I guess we no longer have to wonder what Marigold does for a living. I mean, I often hit the "display page source" key on visiting a new web site, but how many people outside "the industry" do that? And honestly, unless the CoD site is all Web 2.0 and dripping with Java, it's really a bit pretentious to talk about "code". HTML is a markup language for goodness sake! Back in the day, before the advent of WYSIWYG interfaces, secretaries used to use document markup to format their letters. It ain't exactly rocket science.
And Dora seems remarkably defensive about her leet programming skillz. After all, she is an amateur. Nothing wrong with that. I'm sure I'd make a shitty latté.
Steve the Pocket:
Heh, I had just finished up some Web work myself (yes, professionally) when I decided to check in on this. GET OUT OF MY HEAD, JEPH!
Also it's a pity "amateur" has acquired the connotation of "sucks at it," seeing how pretty much everyone's an amateur at all but one thing. That's one thing that's only gotten more true as time has gone by.

Hey, I take offense to that, I have no profession!

Mmm. Would you like some coffee with that code? I think I have CoDs new business plan- programming in the basement, coffee upstairs.
