Perl is... forgotten entirely, despite its efforts in getting us from there to here.
Yup, checks out.
PHP also, but good riddance:-D.
Shell scripting is the ink that makes up these words - without them, you would never have seen this image.
I think Perl is closer to Esperanto - the vast majority of people will never want to learn it and the people that know it won't stfu about how everyone should use it! And they could all use a shower!
(I kid... Mostly)
Plus it has markers for variable types just like Esperanto has suffixes for parts of speech. Wall was a linguist, after all.
