The Weird and The Wonderful

   

The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors, Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.

We all come across code that simply boggles the mind. Lazy kludges, embarrassing mistakes, horrid workarounds and developers just not quite getting it. And then somedays we come across - or write - the truly sublime.

Post your Best, your worst, and your most interesting. But please - no programming questions . This forum is purely for amusement and discussions on code snippets. All actual programming questions will be removed.

I wouldn't ask which language you should use in this particular forum. Try asking that question in the Q&A section[^] instead, and be specific about what you're trying to accomplish.

For each particular topic of discussion, you should open a new thread in the appropriate forum. Much like a bug report, right? You'd want the issues all separated into discrete tickets.

Of course, if you were asking which language you should post horror stories from, you should post ALL of them to maximize the sympathetic groaning potential Smile | :)
