Once upon a time curl met perl perl ask curl how is it that you are so fast and tight
I only wish I could play with you every night
Curl looked at perl and said
It is truly true that I am fast and light
I will win all performance test and every fight
Come join me put your hand in my hand
I take you on the net and end up in land

Re: The day Perl met Curl

    Perhaps I'm not reading this right but it seems like (uninformative) propaganda from the Curl Campers... is this a candidate for Node Reaper?

    Update: OK, beppu is right, there must be something informative about Curl for us to learn about... but does this poem do it? I'd much rather see something that actually points out where Curl might be really beating Perl. But that's just my 2 copper pieces

    ..Guv

      What you say is true, but I don't think Node Reaper has to be involved. Prior to reading this poem, I had forgotten all about Curl (the language). Surely, there is something interesting about it that we as Perl programmers can learn from, so I don't think there was any harm done.

      and now for a short counter-poem
      Win every test and win every fight?
      WTF?
      Curl, you need to relax.
      Love,
      Perl.
