Know why I love Perl? In case I haven’t said it before: Perl Culture. Perl people are smart people who have fun. I don’t think you could say the same about the Visual Basic community. (Okay, we have some not so bright bulbs like myself.)
Reason I like Perl Culture #187: The CPANTS module synopsis:
The final, and possibly most important goal [of CPANTS], is to continue the fine tradition of bad puns in the Perl community. ... CPANTS. CPANTS run. Run, PANTS, run.
