Funny non-IT Uses of UML?

Posted by Cliff on from the bet-the-spec-writers-never-thought-of-these-uses dept.

_pruegel_ asks: "Most people will (if at all) use UML for documentation of software projects. Others come up with non-IT uses like writing poems. Now, I came up with some sort of collaboration diagram for The O.C. (as of episode 2.09). What funny or not so funny but non-IT uses for UML have you found?"

    Strange idea to use UML for documentation. I use it for jailing my gameservers.

    OK then. And excellent start. But I now hereby challenge someone to attempt a diagram for a *daytime* soap. Bonus points if it's Days of Our Lives and includes demonic possessions.

    UML is so torturous that using it for fun is out of the question. It's useful, but it's also annoying to actually use :-(
