Okay, but you see how that's bad, don't you? I'm not a programmer and I know that's bad!

@gwynnion as someone who *is* a programmer I can confirm that is the absolute *last* thing you want to be doing when writing literally any program

@liquid @mirth @WildEyedBoyFromFreecloud I write all my software in scratch /j
