I have seen a few of these while searching for code on the internet

// 

// Dear maintainer:

// 

// Once you are done trying to 'optimize' this routine,

// and have realized what a terrible mistake that was,

// please increment the following counter as a warning

// to the next guy:

// 

// total_hours_wasted_here = 39

//

Whats the best code comments you's have ever seen either personal experience or through the magic of internet
