Have you seen FizzBuzz: Enterprise Edition ?

haha thanks for sharing that, one of the most absurd things I've ever seen. Every once in a while I think about picking up Java or .NET and going for the enterprise-y jobs...no thanks.

I'm going to be laughing about this for days.

its beautiful, not only is it absurd and hilarious, but it says so much. Not as a direct diss to java, but how badly a simple task can get over-designed to the point of being indecipherable. What would be great is if they added some kind of CRM or e-commerce to it, and donated the proceeds to charity. So like, could "Pay as a service" or sign up for "fizzBuzz as a service" and pay to run fizz buzz up to certain limits.
