If you google for recursion … you can google for recursion … you can google for recursion.  This is the kind of thigh-slapping belly-clutching joke which has them rolling in the aisles if you tell it right.

The equivalent entry in the hacker’s dictionary is:

Recursion: n. See recursion

Or, more programmers’ humour, PHP stands for “PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor”, which is a recursive acronym.  We’ve got to get our fun somewhere.
