There!,
That caught your attention...
If you remember a version of BASIC in which GOSUB was your
main ally in the aim to write re-usable code, then you're
at least as old as I am...
But I started this thread here to see if there are any as
yet untapped sources of laughter and possible ridicule
lurking in our midst. The original thread that helped me
to decide to start this one is:

If you take the time to look at the code contained therein,
and if you just change a few of the keywords, add line
numbers and so on, you have a fairly good looking BASIC
program from yester-decade :)
So if you can remember any funny code you've done recently
or not, that might make others chuckle, post a sample up
here. Of course, I'm new to this forum and for all I know,
this type of thread has been done to death! If so, I'll
soon find out I'm sure ;)
Cheers
