On: Amount of profanity in git commit messages per pro...

[r00k]

I wrote a post on my blog 4 years ago (!) with lots of examples of profanity in code comments.

It took a half-hour to write and has consistently gotten more traffic than the rest of my blog.

Ah well, give the people what they want: http://codeulate.com/2007/12/fcking-programming/

To be fair, some of those are hysterical.

In particular:

    # no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
    # no. fuck no. I am a fucking
    # moron.

I think it's the punctuation. It's like angry japanese poetry.

My favourite that I have seen in a codebase is

# This is hideous # I want to poke my eyes out with a fork!
