Today on the SA forums, there was a thread which challenged posters to write
song lyrics in code form. I was going through my iPod on my way home today
listening to songs to try and find something appropriate, when finally, I found
a song that I was able to mentally visualize in perl as I listened.
Here is the result.
I had Kurt listen to the song while
following along with the code, and he said "That is amazing. You didn't post in
code form. You translated the song into perl."
I think I might just be a really big fucking dork.

Seriously this whole song is translated into perl. It's some kind of linguistic feat.
(Yes you are a dork)

The thing is, it's sad enough that I actually took the time to code it. What's worse is that I debugged the damn thing. The end result is a valid, executable perl script.

That's fucking amazing. I'm astounded. I can't stop staring at it. Three cheers for dorks across America!
