Sure I did. I sat at one point of an IRC channel, and someone
tested me. Eventually it was discovered that I am a computer, but it
turned out the other side was an Eliza program. Strangely enough, I could
not detect that the latter fact was true.

Sometimes you don't need to be familiar with a better alternative to know

Perl 6, unlike most people, is able to breathe in the
vacuum of space. In fact, anything else would damage its
respiratory system. Because of this, whenever it's
visiting Earth, it wears a respirator, which resembles a
kickass beard.
Heh heh.
Are all of buubot's wankit factoids about Perl 6?
He should have some about Chuck Norris, too.
fictional factoids about a partially designed, partially
implemented, partially wanted language. :)
merlyn: yeah.
Heh - those are all Chuck Norris quotes with s/Chuck/P6/
rindolf: It's written in Chuck Norris, right
Chuck Norris writes code in Perl 6. Before Larry's done.
And it works.
merlyn: Chuck Norris wrote Perl 6 in a day but then
destroyed all evidence with his bare hands, so no one
will know his secrets.

[Commenting in Slashdot after Arnold Schwarzenegger's decision to use
open-source software in the California government:]
> This is obviously because Bill Gates and Steve Jobs are girly-men.
Yeah and what are the offerings of the open-source world? Let's see:
1. Linus Torvalds - Looks like a dweeb, ergo is a dweeb. How girly is that?
(plus his wife can kick ass better than him)
2. Richard M. Stallman - a hippy. How girly is that?
3. Eric S. Raymond - a nice looking man with a mustache. Baby faced, so he
looks a bit girly to me.
4. Larry Wall - a cross between Linus and RMS (i.e: a hippy dweeb) that is
even more girly.
So who do we have left? Alan Cox? OK, he's manly. (huge man, huge facial hair,
etc.) And all the others are so neglible people don't even know how they look
like.
Note: this comment may have been a bit cruel, so sorry. Don't take it too
seriously, especially if you're one of the guys I laughed about. I hold you all
with the greatest respect. Seriously.
