Two of my favorites from Google code I used to work on (one that I wrote myself, and one that I ended up reviewing) were: "I am going to hell for this." "If this is not removed by xx-xx-2008, beat me over the head with a shovel." (Seen and removed in 2010.)

  Heh, those are two rarer phrases: 1. "I am going to hell for this": https://github.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=%22i+am+going+to+hell+for+this%22&type=Code&ref=searchresults https://github.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=%22i+am+going+to+... 2.

Was an image of a shovel emailed to the committer? :)

  I once encountered the following helpful comment in some (dys)functional code, next to a particularly inscrutable car crash of lambdas: "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn" 7,463 code results for 'fhtagn'. Probably best not to look.
