To answer some of the comments: no, this isn't satire, nor is it a marketing or advertisement piece.
I'm just having fun with the language and wrote a post in the voice of The Grinch (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grinch). It's meant to be mean. That's all there is to it. Tomorrow's article (coincidentally, also written by me), will have a more sober tone and will describe Perl 6's system of containers and variables. See if you like it more.
I'm OK if you don't like Perl 6 :) That's why we have so many different wonderful languages: everyone can find what they love. I love Perl 6. You should try it out.
Some fuddy-duddies think that preferring expression over safety is irresponsible. They might be right, but Perl is a language that doesn't have to justify itself:
I’m glad you’re having some fun. I still code in Perl 5 regularly and reading your code is causing my brain to invert. I’m not sure if you’re a Contrary Warrior or an Assassin whose primary weapon is Brainstem Autodissection. It’s like learning Perl all over again.
