The best web language.
                   language
  Which is the best programming language for you?



                                        Perl?
PHP?
       OR
Python? Ruby?
      ASP?
The one true answer is:

             LOL Code!!1one




LOLCode is an esoteric language by geeks with too much free time.
There are multiple lolcode interperters, parsers, and even compilers.




                                                            “Laser Cats”
I wrote the first working lolcode parser
                     And the first lolcode powered website.
                     I am one of those geeks.
