For those that aren't familiar with SNL it's 'Saturday Nite Live'.
It's a tv
show that parodies celebrities, politicans, social behavior etc. It's
humor
with a stinger, it's supposed to make you laugh at that which is just
too
silly to be taken seriously:)
The smiley's say it all.
select 0/0 -- :(
select 1 where exists( select 0/0) -- :)
select 1 where exists( select 0/0 AS Y) -- :)
select * -- :(
select 1 where exists( select *) -- :)
select \ -- :)
select \/10 -- :)
select 1 where exists( select \) -- :)
create table #X(N decimal(6,2))
insert #X values(10.1)
insert #X values(0)
insert #X values(\)
insert #X values($)
select * from #X
where $=\ /* :) */
drop table #X -- :)
The people who use the phrase 'purists' as a way to justify doing
certain
things have the right idea. This stuff only makes sense inside bol.
Outside
bol forget it:) Having a little fun with it probably beats the
alternative,
getting out my shredder :)
