Topic: Variable Naming Convention

I didn't find it a bit funny.

Wait a minute; I thought the best way to bolster job security, as well as encourage a relaxed work environment, was to give variables friendly names like Fred, Helga, Spanky, etc.  Isn’t it also recommended to set the same variable to several different names, as a variety enhancement to alleviate boredom?

There is also the paranoid programmer's pre-compiled method:

(if (= (+ &*^%$%$#@^&^ !@!#@$%$#%&) &*^%^$@#@$$!*) (princ (strcat %$^#&*!@# ", Spanky"))

I actually stole this concept from a hilarious list somewhere that encourages sensible coding techniques by expounding the “virtues” of the opposite.  I don’t suppose anyone has recalls that link?
