Funny comments

Recently while browsing, I encountered a question at stakoverflow which asks for “What is the best comment in source code you have ever encountered?". It has a long list of funny list. I am just copying few of my favorite.

Exception up = new Exception("Something is really wrong."); throw up;  //ha ha

// Autogenerated, do not edit. All changes will be undone.

// sometimes I believe compiler ignores all my comments

// I dedicate all this code, all my work, to my wife, Darlene, who will // have to support me and our three children and the dog once it gets // released into the public.

// drunk, fix later

// Magic. Do not touch.

#define TRUE FALSE //Happy debugging suckers

// I'm sorry.

return 1; # returns 1

/* This is O(scary), but seems quick enough in practice. */

Catch (Exception e) {  //who cares? }

/**  * Always returns true.  */ public boolean isAvailable() {     return false; }

/*  * You may think you know what the following code does.  * But you dont. Trust me.  * Fiddle with it, and youll spend many a sleepless  * night cursing the moment you thought youd be clever  * enough to "optimize" the code below.  * Now close this file and go play with something else.  */

try { } finally { // should never happen }

const int TEN=10; // As if the value of 10 will fluctuate...

long long ago; /* in a galaxy far far away */

//This code sucks, you know it and I know it.  //Move on and call me an idiot later.

// If this comment is removed the program will blow up

double penetration; // ouch

// I don't know why I need this, but it stops the people being upside-down x = -x;

// I am not sure if we need this, but too scared to delete.

# To understand recursion, see the bottom of this file At the bottom of the file: # To understand recursion, see the top of this file

// I am not responsible of this code. // They made me write it, against my will.

/* Please work */

//private instance variable for storing age public static int age;

/* You are not meant to understand this */

//I am not sure why this works but it fixes the problem.

// I will give you two of my seventy-two virgins if you can fix this.

// no comments for you // it was hard to write // so it should be hard to read

// I have to find a better job

last = first; /* Biblical reference */

int MyFunction() {     // There once was a man named Dave     int Result = 0;     // Whose code just wouldn't behave     MyObject *Ptr = new MyObject();     // He left to go to a meetin'     Result = Ptr->DoSomething();     // And left his memory a leakin'     return Result; }

} catch (PartInitException pie) {     // Mmm... pie

// This comment is self explanatory.

try { } catch (SQLException ex) {     // Basically, without saying too much, you're screwed. Royally and totally. } catch(Exception ex) {     //If you thought you were screwed before, boy have I news for you!!! }

virgin = 0;     /* you're not a virgin anymore, sweety */

public boolean isDirty() {     //Why do you always go out and     return dirty; }

// TODO: Fix this.  Fix what?

Repeat     ... Until (JesusChristsReturn) ' Not sure

if (/*you*/ $_GET['action']) { //celebrate

// I can't divide with zero, so I have to divide with something very similar result = number / 0.00000000000001;

//Mr. Compiler, please do not read this.

'NO COMMENT

catch (Ex as Exception) {      // oh crap, we should do something. }

-- Comment this later

/** Logger */ private Logger logger = Logger.getLogger();

$you = live("free") or die("hard");

if (case1) { // trivial ... } else { // we are screwed  /* fill in later */ }
