Nope.

I just delude myself into thinking that I'm great. Which I am.

If there are no comments in the code, why not just cut and paste random comments extracted from CUK posts?

That way people working on the code (yourself for a start) will find it more interesting, and by staying alert will introduce fewer bugs when changing it. Isn't that the whole point of comments?

Its not so much the comments but the lack of comments in the code that really p1sses me off.
so YES comments in the code can be really upsetting.
