You know you've X when Y

post your own, I was going to make this about just my post but why be so selfish  >:)

you know you've been studying PHP too much when this makes more sence then English:

^([a-zA-Z0-9._]+)@([a-zA-Z0-9-])+(\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)$

I don't get it. How is that any different from what you normally type like? I mean, that looks WAY easier to understand than most of what you type anyway.

That's very intersting, because it looks more like a regular expression than something in PHP.

Here is an equation i like:

Spriggan < Entropy

:P
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)
