I will have to google redneck later. Thx.

Can our report generator do grouping? Nope.
Can our report generator reorder columns? Nope.
Can our report generator do summing? Nope.
Can our report generator add a column to a report with trival ease? Nope, Nope, Nope!
But it's ours (!!!) not some worthless NIH junk.
Admin
There also this other word used predominantly in the English language, a very important one to google: goatse

This is what I found out.
Admin
If it's ok with everyone, I'll comment on the article...
Where are the break statements?
Admin
Zing? More like: neerRROW-BOOM

I am happily ignorant about Visual Basic, but the internet seems to indicate that case statements in VB don't fall through.

But trust me... you're way ahead of them.
If you want an amusing experience, look at pictures of rednecks. This will get you started.
But I do like rednecks. They're the reason no one will ever invade the United States. Japan was going to do a land invasion, before they found out about millions of rednecks and their rifles (the Founding Fathers of the USA called them: the Militia).
Rednecks in the southeastern U.S. purchase about 10 billion rounds of ammunition a year, and they bought up another 8 billion in the months after Obama was elected. Favorite pastime: killing things with their guns.

Someone with a "legitimate command of the English (not British!) language" would the word You're in the sentence "Your no writer!".
Admin
Place your nose close to the screen and move away slowly. Eventually an image will appear of Paris Hilton; or the code will actually make sense.

TRWTF is that the original programmer only had 32 cases. Before this new guy even thinks about fixing up a column he should make sure that all cases (2^66) are handled.
Admin
Admin
Wow, reading Quickly, I saw "The Daily What the Feud"...
Admin
Someone with any knowledge of the English language should know when to use "your" and when to use "you're" too...
(I wonder what an illegitimate command of the English language might be like....F**K)
Admin
TRWTF is using a case statement that takes a integer number to return an array of bits. The code would be much easier to maintain and read if you just passed a bigint to indicate which columns you wanted.
Done.
Admin
Yeah I wonder about that, I think I'll take a reasonably well organized program written by a weirdo than a big ball mud. Second thought is maybe the author had plans to put that data into a config file or database but never got around to it.
CAPTCHA: could be worse

Sometimes you just look at something and the only rational response is .... Jesus Christ! WTF????!
This is one of those times.

Aren't you the guy who thinks aircraft carriers fly?
I'm going to go ahead and not take advice on wit from you.

As we used to say in our family "no jury would convict"
Admin
That was funny picture, but I don't think it is real. I found some reference to Larry Cable Guy. Will have to see that movie, sometime.
If they love killing so much, they should go to military force. Why military is called peace keeping force is mystery to me. Everyone knows once military comes in there's no chance for peace to make appearance.
Admin
Well, if it was properly implemented as a 32-bit integer with a mask for the unused columns then it would actually be a great solution even for an embedded system with no file system....
Addendum: but the way it was actually implemented was just a miserable pile of [insert random AVGN insults here]

Okay, it's all good to have the true religion and be washed in the blood of the lamb and and all that, but could you please keep it in your pants?
(and, may I say... "washed in the blood of the lamb"? Ick!)
Admin
Did robots code this per chance? Binary solo....
Admin
Arrrggh, I am confused when reading this :(

Admin
There may be a distinction to be drawn between a perpetual armed stalemate and "peace".
Admin
sigh I'll stab you with a spoon.

This SQL kind of reminds me of something from Lovecraft's A Colour Out Of Space. There are flowers tainted by the alien presence that turn to a color that does not exist anywhere on Earth, and it hurts the eye to look at them because it isn't designed to see that.
Admin
Sorry, got distracted while posting. I mean code, not SQL.
Admin
Sheer. Fucking. Genius.
Admin
I'm willin to betchya its real.
Find a rural town in Louisiana or Mississippi at least 50 miles from an interstate highway or major city and you will find this guy.
In all defense, the guy might have been doing repairs inside and moved the toilet outside -- but his family tree probably doesnt branch out...
Admin
You think that's unreadable? Then try that:
Admin
Oops, imagine a:
in front of that. ;-)
Admin
See TRWTF is that they used strings when they should have used arrays, because if they used arrays, they could have at least used verbose symbol names.
...wait, that is a real wtf, and it would partially fix the problem. My bad.

Over the centuries tory burch handbags have gone through many adaptations and tory burch coroline satche silver fashions, but the word handbag was only coined in the 1900s. The start of the twentieth century also heralded the type of tory burch sale we would recognise today - with tory burch shoes getting increasingly smaller and the introduction of tory burch fasteners, inner compartments and locks http://www.handbags4fashion.com/.
