That could be a really viral campaign.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

When you try to retrieve the value of a checkbox on a form using Request.Form.Get(keyname), the resulting value is "false" if the checkbox isn't checked, but if the checkbox IS checked, the returned value is "true,false".
WTF?!!!! I mean seriously - WHAT THE F*CK?!!!!!!

It's the first step to a natural language API.
"It's true, isn't it?"
|

|

Wouldn't that be "true,false?"? That's equally absurd so, why the f*ck not, right?

It's almost as if the federal government had a hand in the implementation... It's no wonder the ObamaCare web site is so f*cked up.

Don't Microsoft checkboxes have three values? 'true', 'false', and 'true,false'? Maybe thats only windows forms.

The only two return values I've seen in MVC are "false", and "true,false". How other bastardized Microsoft frameworks handle it are not applicable.

WPF checkboxes have an IsChecked property that can be either false, true, or null.
When you want to check if the checkbox is really checked, you have to:
if (checkbox.IsChecked == true)
{
...
}Butt-fugly.

Not to get too much into a programming discussion, this is the lounge, but you can also write it this way
if (checkbox?.IsChecked : false)
{
}
This way, if it IsChecked is null, it's still false.
Leave it to Microsoft to create a system where nothing is something and you still can't divide by zero. 
if (Object.DividedByZero == true) { Universe.Implode(); }

I use WPF pretty much every day. It falls solidly into the category of "other bastardized Microsoft frameworks".

I disagree with your word 'bastardized'. That implies they got WPF from someone else, and then screwed it up. I think WPF is all their own. The term "sonofabitching" works in its place.

As far as I know, it has (almost) nothing to do with MVC nor Microsoft. This is the data send by the form on the HTML page.
If instead of accessing raw values, you would let MVC load the values in a model, then the framework would handle that kind of stuff automatically.
If you want to work at low level, then you have to understand the subtilities...

Does it LOOK like I don't understand the "subtleties"? Returning "true,false" to indicate that a checkedbox is checked isn't a subtlety, it's f*cked up, or if you're too sensitive to call it what it really is (or you're just playing around, and not working on a real project), it's quirky.

Nothing to do with MVC...With HTML checkbox value is absolutely meaningless, you should check the 'checked' attribute...
If you want to use MVC, use the helpers - they resolves the anomalies of HTML...
If you want to use HTML directly...read about it...
