Doesn't matter. Even if it's your code, you might revisit something you made months or a year after doing it and having comments will speed up your work. It's a very basic good practice.

i do have comments, for some things, but there are a lot of "commenting" standards that are just shit. I find i don't care what the actual piece of code is doing, i care more about it's place in the rest of the code, and i'd much rather have "anti comments" instead.
