Python, javascript, cobol and more - good, bad, ugly syntax and all - jumped to the forefront of entertainment for a few hours today. The #songsincode hashtag on Twitter went through the roof, and I have to say it is one of my favorite trending topics ever. I see some folks hating on it already, so that proves its gone over the top. Just so I don't have to drill through all the spammers everytime I want to look at them and love them all over again, I am putting some of my favorites here, attributed to the awesome Tweeters who made them possible.
In no particular order...John Zeitler from Pittsburgh contributed several good ones - http://twitter.com/jzeitlerpublic void reality() { try{ if( this.realLife()||this.justFantasy() ) { throw new Landslide(); } } catch (Landslide l) { this.reality() } }public void timeWarp() { this.jump(left); this.step(right); this.thrust(pelvic); this.timeWarp(); }if( me.has(you) || !me.has(you) ) { /*this won't happen*/ me.live(); }if( me.cash > 1000000 ) { house yourHouse = Store.buy(house.class); you.give(yourHouse); }djbigdaddy from NYC tips in - http://twitter.com/djbigdaddycometogether = [] cometogether.append('right now') cometogether.append('over me') for i in cometogether: print iimport stalker stan = stalker() if eminem.be(just like him) == 'yes': stan.girlfriendintrunk()m = 'Makes us harder, better, faster, stronger!' x != 'kill me': x + 1print 'Can only make me stronger, %s' % (m)Here's a few from Tallahassee's Ben Clark - http://twitter.com/benclark$self.dance = !$madame.ask($self, 'dance'); do { $madame.mood('charming', 'gentle'); } while ($madame.style == 'continental');Comments [0]

From Marketing Magazine, May 2009...
"Couche-Tard, a Quebec-based convenience-store chain, said it is comfortable with an Internet advertising campaign featuring a happy clown being hacked to pieces.
Another ad has the multi-coloured clown meeting a gruesome death at the hands of a saw and coming out the other end in the form of balloons and pieces of confetti.
The two online ads are aimed at promoting the 10th anniversary of Sloche, Couche-Tard’s popular slushy drink.
Company spokeswoman Jacinthe Harnois said adults may finds the ads distasteful, but they are not the ones being targeted.
She said the campaign is aimed at teenagers and that the ads are appearing only on the Internet because that’s where it’s easy to reach youngsters.
She adds some people may be shocked watching the videos but she jokes the clown is just happy doing his job."
