Big thanks to Corey for brightening my day with this one:

  1. Disbelief
    • "Who wrote this!?
  2. Anger
    • "I'm not cleaning this up!"
  3. Bargaining
    • "Okay, we'll fix up this module if you promise we'll just rewrite everything else."
  4. Depression
    • "This is never going to get any better."
  5. Acceptance
    • "I'll just create a wrapper..."
