Yeah B16B00B5 and CAFEBABE are 2 of my favorite funnier ones Ive used a bunch of times. They make for more interesting placeholder values than "foo" and "bar" anyway.

Without commenting on the reasonability of it, you may want to be aware that a growing population of vegetarian and female tech workers may find these offensive.

Beef dies in the wild too so DEADBEEF should not, I do not care if they want to use B16D1CC instead :) I can't see why CAFEBABE would be offensive though.

...And honestly I guess I don't care? If people are that mad about some levity then I probably do not want to work with them.

If you want levity, why not just use terms that aren't offensive? If you can't think of a joke without being sexist or misogynist, then that's on you - don't blame others for "not having a sense of humor"

You might get a pass on #cafebabe if your local baristas don't speak 1337.

Dead beef is offensive (potentially) how?

I'm pretty sure both women and men love big boobs and big dicks...

Shouldn't that be B16?

I'd make a joke about beware of the woke crowd coming for you, but I think even joking about that causes offense nowadays.

No 6 looks like a 'b'. I think closest to 'g' is 9.

But 'B' is already there, and all the other characters are uppercase, so '6' -> 'G' scans easier to my eye.

'619' may be 'big', but it doesn't scan that well. 'B16' looks more like 'BIG'
