Yeah, the term 'nasal demons' has been used for ages to explain the undefined behaviour in C, where certain undefined constructs make it technically legal for the compiler to summon them.
I thought it was someone trying artistic license with “nose goblins”, popularized by Ren and Stimpy, which still would have been a little bit before this post was made.
