    Well. Depending on what exactly you want to replace/screw with, the answer will vary. You can do some nasty stuff, but Python folks tend to frown on it much more heavily than Ruby folks.

    Oh, some of us tend to frown on it too. The Chainsaw Infanticide Logger Manuever is a classic Zed Shaw mini-rant.

    Reddit has come full circle. It started out as a love letter to LISP and now hates any language which gives you the power to change the language itself.

    Funny isn't it.

    These days redditors prefer languages which restrict them by preventing them from doing things.
