I once worked with a senior dev who wrote all his array iteration for loops with no condition e.g "for int i = 0 ;; i++" and added an "if i == array.length then break" type condition to the end of every block... And he genuinely didn't see this as a problem at all.

This was something I did in school to fuck with the teacher. He said all he cared about was output so as long as the code all worked, we could make it as stupid as we want. He taught us really good basics though. Really encouraged us to learn more about coding ourselves so that we could make the next best shitpost for the class. My favorite was creating stupid arithmetic functions. What the fuck is i++? I only know the function increaseIByOne
