The one I did that seemed to go down best on Twitter:

   problems.size == 99 && !problems.include?("bitch")

It's interesting how using a different language gives a slightly different flavour, e.g. Python:

len(problems) == 99 and "bitch" not in problems

  If (BillieJean.is != my.lover) 
    {
      BillieJean.justa = 'girl';
      i = 1;

Check it out graphically. Click anywhere on the chart and see how it started, peaked and came back down.

I think they should actually play songs... I'm not very good at it, but I tried: http://twitter.com/beenewilliamr/status/3436763908

For the Torontonians out there:

   if place.standable() and place.growable():
     place.name = 'Ontario'
     us = place

"Jump around up and get down"?

Heh... yeah. I meant well, but my tea pot was screaming, and was more important than integrating php goto mockery into this topic :)

Tough audience, I guess HN really hates buggy code :p
