When choosing a delimiter for Quote and Quote like Operators I:

• use a pair of delimiters {} () <> [] as often as possible
• use / when it's a regex
• just avoid # and it's fine
• choose whatever's not present in my string
• carefully select a delimiter that makes my OBFU even more confusing
• only use \ because I hate you
• delimit strings with my bare hands
• don't use quote-like operators
• follow several rules to increase clarity, consistency and maintanability and my pay-check
• start complaining; stop expecting me to make a decision and Do What I Mean already!

I use the ; in SQL statements, so I can easily copy-paste :)

my $sth = $dbh->prepare (qq;
    select foo, bar
    from   wobble
    where  barney = 42;
    );
