Stupid ways to spell simple code

There's a bit of a discussion on python-ideas that includes a function
that raises StopIteration. It inspired me to do something stupid, just
to see how easily I could do it...

Here's a much more insane way to spell that:
stop = (lambda: 0 and (yield 1))().__next__
So, here's a challenge: Come up with something really simple, and
write an insanely complicated - yet perfectly valid - way to achieve
the same thing. Bonus points for horribly abusing Python's clean
syntax in the process.
Go on, do your worst!
