Here's the most convoluted “Hello World!” script I could come up with (in response to this). I don't know if it works. I've proven it correct, but I haven't tested it.

from random import choice
from itertools import count
from zlib import crc32
import sys
any(crc32(h)==472456355 and not sys.stdout.write(h) for h in(''.join(choice('! edHlorW')for _ in '.'*12)for _ in count()))

I promise my production code is (marginally) more readable this this…
