COBOL fingers: /koh´bol fing´grz/, n. Reported from Sweden, a (hypothetical) disease one might get from
coding in COBOL. The language requires code verbose beyond all reason (see
candygrammar); thus it is alleged that programming
too much in COBOL causes one's fingers to wear down to stubs by the endless
typing. “I refuse to type in all that source code again; it would
give me COBOL fingers!”
