I found some funny or redundant statements on technical books I've read, I'd like to share.

And I mean good, serious, technical books.

Ok so starting it all:


  • The .NET framework doesn't support teleportation

From MCTS 70-536 Training kit book - .NET Framework 2.0 Application Development Foundation

Teleportation in science fiction is a good example of serialization (though teleportation is not currently supported byt the .NET Framework).


  • C# 3 is sexy

From Jon Skeet's C# in Depth second Edition

You may be itching to get on to the sexy stuff from C# 3 by this point, and I don’t blame you.


  • Instantiating a class

From Introduction to development II in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009

To instantiate a class, is to create a new instance of it.


  • Continue or break

From Introduction to development II in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009

Continue and break commands are used within all three loops to tell the execution to break or continue.


These are just a few. I'll post some more later.

Share some that you might have found too.
