Exactly. When certain smug people come about I just humor them. Like, "oh isn't that nice", when I'm really holding my nose internally. Like who dumped a bunch of toenail clippings in your code? When I see Lisp my reaction is like when my dog makes a mess on my carpet. And macros? You get paid to write code. Is it too much to write a few more lines? Python's nice and all, but Algol, that's a rugged person's language, feels very solid. Not like this squishy Lisp. Like how many parens do I have to type?? Please.

If trolling, it is not very subtle. :-)
