Yep. Brings to mind this:

What it's like to live with a software engineer.

A wife asks her husband, who is a software engineer: "Could you please go shopping for me and buy one carton of milk, and if they have eggs, get six cartons!" A short time later the husband comes back with six cartons of milk. The wife asks him, "Why did you buy six cartons of milk?" He replies, "They had eggs."
