Hillarious Error

So... I was working with a client's application the other day and I got one of the funniest errors I have ever seen in my life.  Gotta love it!

If you ever see this error (or similar) then you really need to think about maybe refactoring a little... Anybody care to guess the complexity of this method?

Error Message:  "No overload for method MethodName takes '125' arguments."

Cyclomatic Complexity:  121 (extremely bad)
Maintenance Complexity:  13,031 (very very bad)

Can't imagine what application that could be! Though, if I recall, there was another _overloaded_ version of that same function with _more_ parameters, no? Good luck with that one! :)
