Assembly would be Taoism - It is so different from
other languages that many people don't
understand how can anyone use it to produce
anything useful. Its followers believe that it's the
true path to wisdom, but that wisdom is beyond
the grasp of most mortals.

Hmm hmm, been someone who has read books on Taoism, I totally concur here

Perl made me laff the hardest, though i like perl
Are you keeping tabs on Perl 6 development? I tried to but it seems the language won't see stronger support again. But the huge number of packages available in CPAN is still a blessing.

The whole thing is confusing i like some features of Perl 6, like the changes made to array-accessing/indexing, but mehn too many big changes to the language syntax its unnerving, Its almost like a totally new language

It is a totally new language. It's just not gaining traction. I'm not sure learning it will be a good investment, especially since it's targeting an already dominated niche.
