I was just thinking of this metaphor today.

Try drawing the software monstrosity you work on / with as an airplane. 100 wings sticking out all different directions, covered with instruments and fins, totally asymmetrical and 5 miles long. Propellers, jets, balloons, helicopter blades.

Yep, it flies.

When it crashes, just take off again.

So software is my son's Bad Piggies flying monstrosity! You only left out the crates of TNT.
