Shoot yourself in the foot... with your favorite programming language
by Esther Schindler
I'm so glad to see that someone has updated the list...
C
You shoot yourself in the foot.
C++
You accidentally create a dozen clones of yourself and shoot them all in the foot. Providing emergency medical assistance is impossible since you can't tell which are bitwise copies and which are just pointing at others and saying, "That's me, over there."
JAVA
After importing java.awt.right.foot.* and java.awt.gun.right.hand.*, and writing the classes and methods of those classes needed, you've forgotten what the hell you're doing.
Ruby
Your foot is ready to be shot in roughly five minutes, but you just can't find anywhere to shoot it.
PHP
You shoot yourself in the foot with a gun made with pieces from 300 other guns.
ASP.NET
Find a gun, it falls apart. Put it back together, it falls apart again. You try using the .GUN Framework, it falls apart. You stab yourself in the foot instead.
Comments
Python
You try to shoot yourself in the foot but you just keep hitting the whitespace between your toes.
ROTFL ;-)
One of my correspondents enjoyed the list, and pointed me at Of Mice and Methodologies. Definitely a good companion piece.
Domino Formula Language :
@shoot(foot)
LotusScript :
Dim Session as New NotesSession
Dim MyFoot as Apendage
Dim MyGun as New Gun
Set MyFoot = Session.Foot(Left)
Call MyGun.Shoot(MyFoot)
Ajax:
function $(a){return document.getElementById(a)}
var $gun={
shoot:function(){
var myFoot=$('my-foot-div')
myFoot.innerHTML='Ajax just shot your foot'
}
}
window.onload=$gun.shoot
