Representative Line: The Truest Comment

by

from The Daily WTF on (#54G0X)

Usually, when posting a representative line, it's a line of code. Rarely, it's been a representative comment".

Today's submitter supplied some code, but honestly, the code doesn't matter- it's just some method signatures. The comment, however, is representative. Not just representative of this code, but honestly, all code, everywhere.

 // i should have commented this stupid code

As our submitter writes:

I wrote this code. I also wrote that comment. That comment is true.
Why do I do this to myself?

I sometimes ask myself the same question.
