FSM? Flying Spaghetti Monster?

I'm guessing "Finite State Machines". But in a way, "Flying Spaghetti Monster" is also a bit "hairy" and hard to understand...

Was there anything they *did* understand, or did they just bang on the
keyboard at random until the code compiled? *wink*

Accompanied by coping and pasting example code from Google results, random twiddling of the code or posting questions on newsgroups until the code compiles...a surprisingly popular technique. :-(
