The combination of regular expressions and voodoo just makes me want to HULK SMASH my desk into little itty bitty pieces.
I am reading this example, and right away I had a question, which the author doesn't explain in well enough detail to make me understand.

Why in the heck do the "/user/joe/x" and "profile/joe/x" don't match?I wish there was a way I could run a debug on this component, and watch the pattern matching tree for myself.
Because that Nettuts tutorial has comments closed, and I am just steaming at the ears at how much inane filler there is.
I always get obsessive when it comes to knowing some little detail.
