Just a touch of Geek Humor

We've all seen weird and wacky method names.  Heck, we've all written some weird method names.  Brad Abrams blogs about a couple of oddly named methods, starting a chain of feedback with even funnier method names.  It's worth a good laugh or two: http://blogs.msdn.com/brada/archive/2005/01/09/349678.aspx
I have a hard time picking just one favorite ... but some of the best are:

  • PrestoChangoSelector
  • die_you_gravy_sucking_pigdog()
  • And for the consultants out there: public const int* System.Management.ManagementStatus.ClientTooSlow()

The feedback is worth quite a few good laughs.  I found myself nearly in tears at some of the method names ... and this coming at a time when I'm plowing my way through Code Complete 2nd Edition ...
