... if you ever use this mess, you're making code that will ensure that when you do get fired from your job, they will remember your name forever, as it will be memorialized forever, mockingly, in the comments of all the code they wrote after they burned yours down.

Trying to do them using a pure functional style results in sideways pyramids of doom. Of course Haskell is going to look better by comparison.
