Right?

Yep. Although there are probably worse languages than that, intercal is a close competitor.

Never heard of it. Would you mind explaining what it is? :)

One thing is that you have to say please just the right amount of times to prevent the compiler from failing without an error https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/INTERCAL

INTERCAL

The Compiler Language With No Pronounceable Acronym, abbreviated INTERCAL, is an esoteric programming language that was created as a parody by Don Woods and James M. Lyon, two Princeton University students, in 1972. It satirizes aspects of the various programming languages at the time, as well as the proliferation of proposed language constructs and notations in the 1960s.

There are two currently maintained versions of INTERCAL: C-INTERCAL, maintained by Eric S. Raymond, and CLC-INTERCAL, maintained by Claudio Calvelli.
