self-modifying code

When bad programming (or a bad compiler/loader) causes a computer to 'write' data over a portion of memory that it later thinks is programming instructions in machine code, it will end up doing unpredictable things, depending on that data. By extension, any action which is likely to have unpredictable, unforseen or chaotic results.

Usually heard among techies who program in assembly language or machine code.

Da Vinci Code

The book wasn't too bad in my opinion, sure there were a lot of problems, but I liked the plot and the conspiracies in it. but then again it's just my opinion if I like it or not. and considering that this site is Urban Dictionary! I can write this if I so wish. now I wait for everyone to start hating on this.
person1: Dude did you read the Da vinci code?
Me: Yes why?
person1: oh it's such a piece of shit!
person2: Yeah it sucked outright!
Me: alright that is your opinion. true there were many flaws. but I just like the plot and conspiracies in it

Girl 2: "hello!? you fucking broke the girl code rule #27."
Girl 3: "oh, duh, i checked out a guy that you once that was cute. i am so sorry."

Code: Lyoko

French Canadian attempt at anime, complete with enigmatic Japanese girl, superficial girl, twist headband guy, and a shitload of dorks. At least it isn't a 100% sellout cartoon like Teen Titans.
If you want to copy anime, at least get the spellings right! LYOKO shouldn't have an "L" as there is no "L" in Romanicized Japanese.
