Lisp devs don't understand this

Lisp devs go out of their way to pretend they're not dealing with lisp

I fucking hatte Lisp for its excessive use of brackets. Fuck the Person who thought that you only need one type of bracket and then have shove absolutely fucking everything into it.

Lisps are hardly my favorite languages, but the whole point of s-expressions is that it is a uniform syntax, which makes metaprogramming much, much easier. Metaprogramming is kind of the whole thing of lisps.

Yeah I know, but I have no clue about that kind of stuff, simply because I hate that language so god damn much so that I never cared enough to actually learn it a single inch more than it was needed, so that I could copy paste code from StackOverflow into my Emacs config.

Unless your go-to language is something like Haskell or Forth, that first phrase just means you are ignorant of how many brackets your favorite language uses.

Okay, it may use not that much more brackets, but I really dislike the places where you have to use them and it gets even worse simply because it does only use regular brackets. Why the fuck are function declaration and definition part of the same bracket? Why is its the same for conditions?
