I came across this while looking for something else enjoy

I wont include all it of because its rather long

SIMPLE ... SIMPLE is an acronym
for Sheer Idiot's Mono Purpose Programming Lingusitic Environment.
Programs written in SIMPLE do nothing useful.Thus they achieve the results of programs written in other languages without the tedious frustrating process of
testing and debugging.

SLOBOL ... SLOBOL is best known for the speed or lack of it of its compiler. Although many compilers allow you to take a coffee break while they compile
SLOBOL compilers allow you to take a trip to Bolivia to pick up the coffee. Forty-three programmers are known to have died of boredom sitting at their terminals while waiting for a SLOBOL program to compile.

SARTRE ... Named after the late existential philosopher.SARTRE is an extremely unstructured language. Statements in SARTRE have no purpose they are just there.
Thus SARTRE programs are left to define their own functions. SARTRE programmers tend to be boring and depressed and are no fun at parties.

C-...This language was named for the grade received by its creater when he submitted it as a class project in a graduate programming class.
C- is best described as a 'Low Level' programming language.
In fact the language generally requires more C- statements than machine-code statements to execute a given task. In this respect it
is very similar to COBOL.

There were more but hey these are the funniest

Laughing is me here - oh dear old "C"

I scratch my aged blond brain :p to come up with

Oh
Sure

Now those were the easy days :D

C- is not good enought, i use C--;

C's alright, expect for not being an object Object-oriented programming language. C++ on the other hand rocks :)

PASCAL and BASIC should be thrown in the recycle bin.

DOS is cool, I still use it quite often

I like that idea mystic remember tho its not the computer at fault its the person who programmed it :)

Yes, object-oriented programming is definitely a plus, but you must remember that many C++ compliers simply implement C under the covers and then use C compilers to output machine code. So anything you can do in C++, you can do in C, it just takes a lot more coding.
