Ruby

A lot of hype, useless in the real world.

Python

A bunch of self-punishing nuns who whip themselves with chain every time they don’t follow strict syntax standards.

Perl

Used to write scripts that automate server functions, by people who don’t realize you can do the exact same things with a bash script in 1/5th the time and with half the bugs. Also: impossible to read.

ColdFusion

The bad guy in the movie that never seems to die.

PHP

Written by the largest group of schizophrenics with obsessive-compulsive disorder. They try to keep backwards compatibility where it’s not needed, and remove it where it is. Also: has had more API changes than Michael Jackson has had nose jobs.

LOLCODE

The best language ever written. There’s even PL/LOLCODE for PostgreSQL.

HAI

CAN HAS STDIO?

VISIBLE “HAI WORLD!”

KTHXBYE
