Basically we rummage in CI’s source code for any funny, interesting or weird snippets of code and post them here to show that we developers and programmers do throw some humor into our work 😊
For example, I was just looking at the Loader’s source code when I found this in CI_Loader::model():
<?php
// ...
if (is_array($model))
{
foreach($model as $babe)
{
$this->model($babe);
}
return;
}
// ...

Always a good laugh that one 😛
Just came across this the other day from index.php:
/*
|---------------------------------------------------------------
| LOAD THE FRONT CONTROLLER
|---------------------------------------------------------------
|
| And away we go…
|
*/
And this one in the standard humans library
class Humans {
function Humans()
{
$this->kill_all();
}
function kill_all()
{
$this->db->where('human', 1);
$this->db->delete('users');
}
}No idea who would have done this 😛

That famous (or not?) ‘away we go’ line. I love it.
And what is this Humans library that you speak of? 😛

I like the table library.
// Is there anything to display? No? Smite them!
In truth, we try to avoid too many funny refs in there. Derek Jones even talked me out of my Prince reference that I had in the db library after he helped out with a particularly thorny regex. I now share it here for all the world
// So this is what it feels like when doves cry…

Difficult as it may be, we try to keep comments in CodeIgniter for the most part neutral. ExpressionEngine, however, is another story.
#6 / Feb 15, 2008 5:05pm
Haha good to see some humour still in coding - Ill have to look through your life story in EE then 😛
#7 / Feb 16, 2008 7:57am
Just wondering, why exactly do you try to avoid funny comments?
#8 / Feb 16, 2008 10:41am
Just trying to keep the level of professionalism high. Its not that funny code comments are necessarily unprofessional, its just that we try to keep in a “strictly code” mindset when we work with CI so as to deliver the most stable, fast, comprehensive code possible.

Just picked this up from Pagination.php (while trying to make it take an extra parameter to specify a uri_assoc_key..anyway)
// Determine the current page number. <br />
$CI =& get_instance(); <br />
if ($CI->uri->segment($this->uri_segment) != 0)<br />
{<br />
$this->cur_page = $CI->uri->segment($this->uri_segment);<br />
<br />
// Prep the current page - no funny business!<br />
$this->cur_page = (int) $this->cur_page;<br />
}

The image lib has secrets…
// If the target width/height match the source then it's pointless to crop, right?
// So if dynamic output isn't on, then we'll return true so the user thinks
// the process succeeded. It'll be our little secret…
if ($this->width >= $this->orig_width AND $this->height >= $this->orig_height AND $this->dynamic_output !== TRUE)
{
return TRUE;

OK I get you Derek. Especially for code comprehensibility.
#12 / Feb 16, 2008 11:29pm
I really hope that CodeIgniter 1.7 will be released with comments containing knock-knock jokes, funny IRC quotes, Star Trek quotes and ASCII-porn.
That would make my day.
#13 / Feb 17, 2008 12:17am
Does this count?
