redundant code, better:

switch (workStatus)
{
case "ManagerInRoom":
WorkDiligently();
break;
case "HaveNonUrgentDeadline":
case "HaveImminentDeadline":
CheckTwitter();
CheckEmail();
ContemplateGettingOnWithSomeWork();
break;
case "DeadlineOvershot":
WorkFuriously();
break;
default:
CheckTwitter();
CheckEmail();
break;
}

I like this one too:
A bad If block:

if (launchCodesCorrect)
TurnOnMissileLaunchedIndicator();
LaunchMissiles();

I hope they have good programmers at the nuclear stations!

If we're talking about coding horrors, I once worked with a guy who would do this:

if (Me.Mounted)
else

Mount.MountUp();​
