&gt; I just don&#x27;t understand why we can&#x27;t call e.g. a buffer overflow in software X a buffer overflow in software X instead of &quot;Adventures in Memoryland!!! The bug, that 0wnzors your boxorz!!&quot;.<p>Since you appear to be sincere, it&#x27;s because sometimes a lot of people like to interact in human ways, which includes a bit of storytelling to relieve the monotony of just the facts.
