And I bet they completely ignore XML commenting and don't require it. (This does look like C#)
Declaring the variables at the top does sound reminiscent of C/C++.
One thing that drives me nuts is using #regions in C# to create a section for all of your fields, then another for delegates, then properties, then functions.... Sounds good until you have a data-object where each bit of data might have a field, an exposing property, and maybe an event or two to let people know when it's added/deleted/changed... and then someone wants to change or delete a property of the object and you have to go thru each region to find the methods and fields regarding that property.

They actually do require the #region separation. It's like this:
#region Variables
...
#endregion Variables
#region Fields
...
#endregion Fields
#region Properties
...
#endregion Properties
#region Constructors
...
#endregion Constructors
#region Methods
#region Private
...
#endregion Private
#region Protected

#endregion Protected
#region Public

#endregion Public
#endregion Methods

Probably, your manager's main metric is lines of code (with the comments). The more lines, the more productive he (and you all) look. If this is the case, then your manager needs a serious education in modern software design(including coding practices).
If you really want to inspire your manager, write a full length paragraph for each line of code. (Pretend that you are writing software for the department of defense. They just love documentation, even if they don't understand what it does.)

One might be missing out on some valuable advice concerning black magic.

Could get pretty expensive if it's premium number

|
|
..only if its not coded to disconnect the second the line is picked up.

already establishing the connection can charge you an initial fee. A longer call just gets increasingly more expensive.
It's like paying for a cab. You pay a base amount for the service and the more time that passes (or the greater the distance) the more expensive it gets.

You need to roll your willpower and your castability as a d6
i do that for you , willpower 4 and castability of 3 makes a 7d6
/roll 7d6
... rolling {1, 3, 5, 5 , 4, 1, 4} >= 5 = 2 successes
I'm sorry he defended your skill with 3 successes.
Please withstand the mana drain now

A distraught senior citizen phoned her doctor's office.
"Is it true," she wanted to know, "that the medication you prescribed has to be taken for the rest of my life?"
"Yes, I'm afraid so," the doctor told her.
There was a moment of silence before the senior lady replied, "I'm wondering, then, just how serious is my condition, because this prescription is marked 'NO REFILLS'.."

An older gentleman was on the operating table awaiting surgery and he insisted that his son, a renowned surgeon, perform the operation.
As he was about to get the anesthesia, he asked to speak to his son.
"Yes, Dad , what is it?"
"Don't be nervous, son; do your best, and just remember, if it doesn't go well, if something happens to me, your mother is going to come and live with you and your wife....."

Aging:
Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it. This is so true. I love to hear them say "you don't look that old."
---------------------------------
The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for. (Mostly because we forgot why we were waiting in line in the first place!!)
---------------------------------
Some people try to turn back their odometers.
Not me!
I want people to know why I look this way.
I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.
********************
When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Algebra.
-------------------------------
One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Ah, being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.

First you forget names, then you forget faces.
Then you forget to pull up your zipper...
It's worse when you forget to pull it down.

Two guys, one old, one young, are pushing their carts around Wal-Mart when they collide.
The old guy says to the young guy, "Sorry about that. I'm looking for my wife, and I guess I wasn't paying attention to where I was going."
The young guy says, "That's OK, it's a coincidence. I'm looking for my wife, too... I can't find her and I'm getting a little desperate."
The old guy says, "Well, maybe I can help you find her... what does she look like?"
The young guy says, "Well, she is 27 yrs. old, tall, with red hair, blue eyes, is buxom...wearing no bra, long legs, and is wearing short shorts. What does your wife look like?'
To which the old guy says, “Doesn’t matter, --- let's look for yours."
*********************
(And this final one especially for me,)
"Lord, keep Your arm around my shoulder and Your hand over my mouth!"
**************************
Now, if you feel this doesn't apply to you . . . stick around awhile . . . it will!

One elderly lady was chatting with another. “My memory is poor Mildred, so I changed my password to “incorrect.” That way when I log in with the wrong password, the computer will tell me… “Your password is incorrect.”
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

Thought from the title it was going to be about poetry/Valentines Day.
Probably shouldn't have found this one[^] funny, but I did.

In Wales it wouldn't have the line through it and would be a triangle.

5 feet in a week 1/2 in the Colorado high country as of yesterday.
We don't make the news much, but we have Breckenridge, A-Basin, Keystone, Copper Mountain and Vail.
Y'all come up. The skiing is out of this world right now.

Sky News were asking for viewer's pictures of the storm devastation so I sent them this[^].
They didn't use it though.
