It's called 'Fists and Elbows (TM)'. You see, it behaves like a furious retard when provoked. It lashes out at whatever it can find. My software does the same thing, only over the network. The moment it detects even the slightest irregularity in the network it launches every attack in the book against any computer it can connect to.
Please don't put such things on the main page, we have enough boring flame wars already...
Oh, so you're one of those holier-than-thou anti-flamewar fanatics, huh? Well, I personally think flamewars rock. We need more of them. I could use a good mysql flamewar right now.
Not only yummy, but it actually does something. Pass it the script an integer. It prints out a square the is the number square. The numbers spiral inward from 1 to the number^2.
Yeah, of course it was a joke. I am a full time Perl programmer. I never write unreadable code, it's well commented and other developers usually have no trouble figuring it out. Even people without a lot of Perl experience. Having and enforcing a coding standard is key though. Amongst many other things, I get very unhappy with my developers when I see things like $_ in the code (especially when it is invisible). Like any other language, you just have to keep on top of things and do things the right way.
The screen is covered with what looks like a still shot of a copy of "The Matrix" screen saver.
He looks at it a minute, and realizes that the coworker is reading it, so it can't be a screen saver.
He thinks about it a second, and then asks "Do you always ready your email fully encrypted with PGP like that? Decoding PGP in you head like that is _really_ impressive!".
"No," says the coworker, "that's just a Perl script I'm working on".
I'd like to submit a corollary to that "Nobody ever got fired by buying IBM" quote. Something along the lines of: "Nobody ever got electrocuted to death fishing for turds."

It's entirely possible, but you will need a troll that is good enough to be newsworthy.

Bah. It's Obviously Slashdotted.

that makes my phone sound like it's losing the connection so I can get out of boring conversations easily.
Being an electrician is another alternative.
