Don't even know how many times I've had to dig into the python sources to figure out why something wasn't working as intended...

My favorite: I was trying to get memory buffer working for an object (following the official docs) using the C-api and it just didn't work no matter how much I fiddled with it so I go digging through the python sources and find out the fully documented feature I was attempting to use wasn't even implemented. Well, half the PEP was implemented.

I'm probably just funny that way since if I can't figure something out from docs I just go read the sources.
