With the new Google Code Search tool suddenly exposing millions of lines of previously obscure code to the public, I decided to try to find the most embarrassing comments possible that are now out in the open for all to see. Even knowing what types of comments developers leave in their code, I was still a bit mortified to find out just what shameful secrets Google has exposed overnight. (And you should see the R-rated examples.) One blogger compared Google Code Search to reading the great "bathroom wall" of programming. Feel dirty?

/* cleanit up! */

I hate myself to sleep at night

This is so sad.

Well, in their defense programming can be frustrating enough to shut down any other thoughts about "real" life. Maybe if we were in the Matrix they would be saying "My god!! that is the lamest sex scene I've writen in years.... " or something like that...
