But closest to your story was when my client (who was testing the website in IE7 BETA!) was complaining about strange layout issues, so I discovered more and more and more flaws in IE's support of the web 'standards'... and I thought I knew most of 'em after all the damn websites I've built. Tip: never use the CSS2 properties: min-height / max-height etc. Ohhh yea, that kind of thing happens to me wayyy too often, it’s almost like it’s my hobby.

If I would just vacuum, dust, mop, wipe and wash, everything would look very nice and I would be done. It's when I lean down and notice the smudges around the baseboards that the minutia (sp?) takes over. Now there is nothing wrong with a good thurough cleaning now and then, but when you find yourself scrubbing the grout with a q-tip instead of cleaning the rest of the house-it's time to take a chocolate break. =) I often encounter this level of nitpickiness when I’m cleaning.
