I've had a thought - Every programing book in the world has a "hello world" section to get you started. However, any real programmer knows that you really need a "Perpetual Facepalm" routine to show your disgust with the end user.

I need your help - Send me a tweet @coolacid and tag it with #pfp (if the routine is less then 120 chars) - There are a few rules.

1. Should be an infinite loop
2. Should have a pause or no-op to allow CPU cycles to continue

Bonus points if you can show it in an actual program
Even more bonus points if you publish it in a book

The more obscure way, or language the better.
