I love gcc but it can't make nested template errors any less horrifying

What!? NEVER nest your templates! That's like jamming a microwave oven inside itself!

If it were up to me I'd be avoiding templates altogether. Sadly, I don't get that choice with 3rd party code.

We never thought we'd live to see a [template] cascade... let alone create one.

Do you know who ate all the function candidates?

The right [type] in the wrong [template] can make all the difference in the world...

I would say that joke only works with template bugs, normally gcc gives fairly good directions.
