Here is a choice sentence from this paper:
A BIG BALL OF MUD is haphazardly structured, sprawling,
sloppy, duct-tape and bailing wire, spaghetti code jungleI can't figure out the pattern he used to generate this but I do think this is entirely unfair to a big ball of mud, duct tape, baling wire, spaghetti and jungle. Doesn't everyone know most modern s/w is like a Rube Goldberg contraption?
