I'm the "foo" guy. My first variable/class/namespace/... (for testing) is "foo". After that I'm using "bar". Next comes "foo2", "bar2", ...
What's your favorite? Are you a "foo" or a "bar" guy?

I use "foo" mostly. I use the e-mail address: foo@bar.baz for things which don't need a real e-mail, but still ask for one.

Nothing beats test@test.com
Wonder how many bad emails the test.com people have to filter out....hehe -

Make it so
After reading Code Complete a couple of years ago, I learned how important proper naming of variables, routines, etc. is and thus avoid using nondescriptive terms like "foo" or "bar".

Depends on the level of testing. If you want to like write 1 line, and see if it compiles, i think foo and bar is fine. But with larger examples - nono! -

Now with more program management
test
blah
blah2
but they're only temporary and I always replace them wtih something more descriptive later (usually add a //TODO: (erikpo) rename variable
I never have used foo or bar. Maybe because I dropped out of school too early before they used those examples? Or maybe because they don't mean anything for me. -

Don't worry... I'm a doctor.
I'm more of a FooBar guy (it's the bar in the CompSci building at Leiden University
)
I usually use foo first, then bar, then baz, and then I usually migrate to "test1" etc. Sometimes I use "blaat" (which is the Dutch word for the sound made by a sheep)

Definitely a "drink","beer","bartender","order","glas","tab" guy.
Because mostley I don't need mutch to agregate but to associate. -

I use quite reasonable names, like MessageFilterTest in my last project when creating unit-tests. I'm no foo or bar guy. But I use "Hello World" more often then what is good for me

I was a FOO, but I guess now I'm a BAR....
FOO = Friends of O’Reilly
BAR = Bay Area Reject
