Found this forgotten gem in one of my unfinished application guides. I must have been having a good day. :doh: :-O

Anybody else use creative or colorful “place holders" or comments that reflect the mood of the day? [Edit] Add missing apostrophe to subject title
It was broke, so I fixed it.

I did once in a college programming assignment once putting an "alert" once in a program while developing it that read "b****cks you shouldn't of gotten this far!" and forgot to remove it before submitting it and received a fail. my lecturer wasn't impressed with the comments.

There should also be an apostrophe in the title.
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. Drink. Get drunk. Fall over - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett

Rubbish! Before or after the s an apostrophe is needed for the possessive form.

After having a hard time with an ERP, which I had to use on rare occasion, and which required a password that I always forgot and which was PITA to enter due to an horror GUI, I entered "TaMereLaPute_12" as new password when retrying for the 100th time (hey passphrase, very secure :rolleyes:). So far so good. By the next login, I blocked the system and had to call an admin, and in the debugging steps he finally could read my password in clear text. :-O And then I was glad he was German and did not understand it. :-O Note to self: Never use abuse as passwords.

I imagine, being a lecturer and presumably a bit of a Radio 4 listener, he would have been more offended by your use of "shouldn't of" than your use of "b****cks". I learned that lesson the hard way too. I used to log out of my Unix system by typing "f*** off", whereupon the system would reply with an equally charming "p*** off" and then log me off. I was demoing my work to my postdoc supervisor, and totally forgot where I was, so at the end I logged off in my normal puerile way. My supervisor helpfully suggested that I should try and avoid doing that in front of our business partners.

I like to put in a "your life still sucks." comment every now and then in my code for old time's sake.

While still in school working on a c++ program for class, I got frustrated for a minute and created an error message that read " MR. Instructor is a freakin pain in the ass and a damn slave driver" I did know that he had a good sense of humor before I did it though...

The other day I was working with some javascript code, and for some reason jQuery wasn't liking this code:
var someFancyElement = jQuery("#" + someFancyElementId)[0];
I thought it had something to do with the @ symbol in the element ID, so I tried changing the @ to a _, but that didn't work... finally I gave up and tried the "old-school" method:
var someFancyElement = document.getElementById(someFancyElementId); // jquery y u no work?!?
Somehow that worked, and I wound up copying that line to a few other places where jQuery wasn't quite working the way I expected...

I created an Access front end to an adhoc colour catalogue production system I had written: On each user creating their 100th catalogue a picture of Cliff Richard is displayed together with the words "Congratulations and Celebrations" - it went down well with the users. The other was purely innocent and accidental - the accounts(debtors) department was staffed mainly by women and I created a piece of code that exported data for them on a daily basis - it was only after a few months that I noticed a possible misunderstanding in the name of the procedure - DebtorsExport.

Thanks - you know I never spotted that one before and yet it is so obvious. Is that site still going strong? - I always used to navigate away from it as fast as I could as it always wanted money or a subscription - what a pita it was!

I still occasionally click on one of their dang links when doing ye ole Google search. And just as quickly backpedal away.

I was once demoing a new reporting function on a system for the key IT people of our European networks when I clicked on the button and a report window popped up saying "Fuck of you cunt!" Fortunately they were suitably impressed by the new functionality to ignore the profanity.
