An additional 100% we didn’t plan for to make the damn thing actually work after delivery.

I like both comments and long variable / function names. I also like it when people break functions down into excessively fine detail.

Why? Because deleting redundant lines is always easier than figuring out what is going on when you don’t have the information you need.

I will name functions by just vomiting out my current train of thought about what the function needs to do. Sometimes it ends up being so long it runs off the page. Good. Now I know exactly what the function does, and anyone in the future will too. But more importantly, an obnoxiously long name draws the ire of everyone who reads it until someone comes up with a better name - usually me, when I’m not actively trying to write the code in the function body. As long as this isn’t a public function in a library that is actively being referenced by hundreds of people, the change is easy with modern ide refactoring tools.

I also do this with comments. But usually, the comments become my function names, and then the comments are redundant.

Because trashy people never saw Austin Powers and updated their use of quotation marks to denote sarcasm.

Quotation marks were historically used to add emphasis to text, the way asterisks are used today. Old people who refuse to change and don’t realize their way of writing is actively making fun of themselves still use them this way. These are also the people who watch Fox.

You probably think that freshly mown grass after a spring rain smells good. You would probably be weirded out if your chocolate cake smelled like that. Just because women like flowery scents doesn’t mean it is a good idea for a man looking for women to wear one.
