C# Compiler Line Limit
April 1st, 2004
Well I found out today that the C# compiler only allows 2046 characters on one line. I wonder why this is the case?
Why was I putting 2046+ characters on one line you ask? Well I was pasting in a rather large error message so I could play an April fools joke on Richard who was kind enough to roll out code on April 1st. Nothing like having the CEO generate a hundred or so errors on the code you just rolled out!
Of course Richard being the astute debugging machine that he is, caught on to the joke pretty quickly.

Dude! OMG, you are like so 3133t h4×0r! You are t3h cool! Can I like work with you and be all ereet too?!? Do you like do compilier hackings all day? Your job bust b3 t3h gr8test.
OMG OMG LOL!!@@?!@!@@!!@?!@#!@#!@# U R TEH OWNSERS!!!!!
Lol. Ryan I dont think you know what you are asking. The hax0r lifestyle is not for the common man. In order to enter the uber one must enter in to the compiler, not as a programmer, but as a part of the compiler itself. Once you have yang with compilation you will then have ying with execution.
now meditate on these words.
