Empty Catch Blocks in T-SQL

Erik Darling looks disapprovingly:

So if you execute the above proc, all it returns is an empty result with no error message.

Kinda weird.

Like not having finger or toenails.

I’m dating myself here but I remember a comment in a TheDailyWTF thread in which somebody puts an ASCII art Pikachu in every empty catch block because hey, you gotta catch ’em all.
