在给一个朋友看了这篇来自《Coding Horror》的文章几个小时后，我看到了他对代码的评论:

// valdez先生是一个暴力的精神病患者。别惹他生气。

if(m_measures =/*=*/ --index)
{
    ....

我最喜欢的是已故的Paul DiLascia:

//作者:如果这段代码工作，它是由Paul DiLascia写的。如果不是，我就不知道是谁写的了。

//Code sanitized to protect the foolish. using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using System.Reflection; using System.Web.UI; namespace Mobile.Web.Control { /// <summary> /// Class used to work around Richard being a fucking idiot /// </summary> /// <remarks> /// The point of this is to work around his poor design so that paging will /// work on a mobile control.

更新:代码的原作者已经暴露了自己，所以我必须在适当的地方给予赞扬。Dan McKinley在我入职后不久就离开了我所在的公司，他讲述了更多关于代码的内容，解释了一些背景知识和“Richard”所写的一些“WTF”。

以及在IOCCC页面上的mkentry.c的其余部分。每次读这篇文章的时候，我都笑不出来。
