This is probably the most complicated thing I’ve ever had to work out in my entire life:
/^MK([1-9]|1[0-5]|17|19|77) [0-9]{1,2}[A-Z]{1,2}$/i

The hell is that?

Hey Jem.
You probably won’t give this much thought, but one of your previous pant award receivers had her website hacked (it was Kate, I believe).
The website’s homepage now looks somewhat demonic, and Kate’s visitors are all freaking out and blogging about it.
‘Pretty insane, if you ask me.
22 Jul at 7:58 pm
Wut?
22 Jul at 8:05 pm
dewd. that looks so fun.
22 Jul at 8:18 pm
O_O
Uhm.
Can’t help you there *hugs*
22 Jul at 8:41 pm
Meep.
I guess that makes me a complete loser for not even having a guess what that even is, apart from it having something to do with coding. Good luck ^^
22 Jul at 9:36 pm
umm…65. yeah, 65.
:/
22 Jul at 9:52 pm
Uhm… lol?
22 Jul at 11:13 pm
Uh, what?
22 Jul at 11:20 pm
Yeah I just checked her site out, shame really, I kinda liked the site and she had some nice colouring tutorials. Maybe you could help her out Jem since you are a PHP ninja :)
Good luck with whatever that coding jargon/problem/error that is.

What is the regex for? You know I hate them :P
23 Jul at 2:08 am
That looks like a new kind of 1337 talk.
And that G3R1L1M dude might hax0r us all. Zomg.
23 Jul at 2:45 am
I have no idea what that is. Honestly.
“The website’s homepage now looks somewhat demonic, and Kate’s visitors are all freaking out and blogging about it.”
Oh man! I just blogged about some guy in a blue shirt, and everyone else’s is blogging about the hack? I’m so lame. :(

I love regular expressions. But my rusty knowledge is making me unsure. D:
23 Jul at 7:30 am
/^MK([1-9]|1[0-5]|17|19|77) [0-9]{1,2}[A-Z]{1,2}$/i? Oh yes, of course….Hmmm why does this whooshing sound go off in my head? Beats me Jem
23 Jul at 9:00 am
Pi. The answer is Pi.
I know this, because Pie is the solution to everything, and in this case, a mathematical/program issue, pi must be the solution! Honest!
e.g. Mathematical pi vs steak and kidney pie. You can see my logic.

re: the hacking of outspoken kate. Usually people get hacked for using unsecured, unstable and out of date scripts, having passwords that are easy to guess or giving out their information on-line. There might be other reasons too, those are the only I know…
I suggest that Kate re uploads everything, and as Jem is always very quick to point out – make sure you are using stable, up-to-date scripts to run your site….

*goes cross-eyed* I tried… but then I decided that I can always google it :P Then again… since my router at home is pretty much dead I might… NAAAAAAAAAAH! I have some 5 chicklits to catch up with.
Well, good luck! :-)

/^ = half an emoticon?
MK = Milton Keynes.
([1-9] = Think of a number between 1 and 9?
Then I get stuck.
23 Jul at 1:54 pm
I know what it could match, but never what it would be used for.
23 Jul at 2:01 pm
Just a hunch, but it looks like a validator for a Milton Keynes post code.
23 Jul at 4:08 pm
A php algorithm
23 Jul at 5:03 pm
O_O I have no idea.
23 Jul at 6:27 pm
A macro? Dunno, i fick lol
23 Jul at 7:05 pm
Virtual cookies to Rachael and nerd; it is indeed a regular expression to match against a set of Milton Keynes postcodes (something I had to make for my course).
23 Jul at 9:13 pm
Woo!
I used to have an MK postcode a few years ago, actually.
MK18 FTW. I know MK42 is Bedford… MK8 is in MK somewhere. MK18 is Buckingham and surrounding villages… *geek*
23 Jul at 10:12 pm
And the question was “What is the meaning of life?” I take it?
Over my head, whoosh.

And now I know that I can sleep in peace knowing what the hell that PHPP jargon was. ^___^
24 Jul at 11:37 am
All I knew is that you need to put in MK in front :P
24 Jul at 7:53 pm
That is hopefully something I’ll never see besides here….

I hate regex with a passion, well, kind of. If I can get it to work first try it is awesome, otherwise it is a pain in the butt. Main reason I hate it: the littlest thing can throw it off.
