Definitely seems like something I would not want to use. Functions with single-letter names. I'm having nightmares tonight. What's the real allure of this?

Okay I read the correct text now. It's satire. ๐Ÿ˜…

I'm astounded, I would have thought that putting an explanation that the article was satire would like...work. Should I have made it giant screaming red text?

No no no ๐Ÿ˜‚ trust me, this was all me, I assure you.

I still reserve the right to be astounded. One of my beta readers said I needed to add a disclaimer that this talk is satire, so I went through a few rounds to make the warning right. I guess we didn't expect someone to get caught up in the title!

I'm a special breed I guess ๐Ÿ˜ I don't normally go about it that way lol
