Oh wait!
I know that one.
That's not a VARIABLE.
That's an EXPLETIVE.

Okay, this is driving me crazy.  Can I vent?   I'm converting an old DOS
system. I've always had a problem with programmers who create variable names
that are impossible to follow, but how is this for a good variable name:
v#x4

His programs are loaded with variable names with # and $ and all kinds of
characters that must have been a pain to type, and don't mean anything. The above variable, believe it or not, is for a simple choose menu to trap a customer
ID.
