I should send in some of the comments from the SMF source code.

:edit:

Gotta admit from the StackOverflow link, this made me chuckle:
Code: [Select]
// Replaces with spaces the braces in cases where braces in places cause stasis
   $str = str_replace(array("\{","\}")," ",$str);

I followed the link you mentioned and it has plenty of good stuff, too.
Ah, well, another hour I won't have spent on Wedge! ;)
It's a complete wedge of time!

I know! Perhaps we need to block the rest of the internets...

Meanwhile, I'm documenting that behemoth, your friend and mine, Post.php.

Well, I already added a Star Trek quote in one of my commits, and I'm certainly not averse to fun comments. I still remember when I put Iron Maiden lyrics in one of my mods.

You are, actually. I'm just not witty enough to quote myself.

You already knew it? I just discovered it...

Yeah, I've seen The Oatmeal before. Blame Asgard for that.

In the meantime, http://innovatenotimitate.com/ if you want to read what else happens when I want to just rattle on a bit. ;)

Oh, you've actually registered it, eh? ;)
I really, really, really hate WP's default template... Why is it that everything 'stock' has to be so bland? "Oh, because it's easier to build upon...!" Yeah, bollocks!
