LOLcode

Yes. LOLcode. Believe it or not, there is an actual scripting language called LOL. Completely based off of HAI and KTHXBYE, LOLcode is for the purely bored. My proof, http://www.lolcode.com. Any questions? KTHX.

It's very simple to use, and its syntax is much like BASIC. You start with HAI and end with KTHXBYE. A simple "Hello world!" application can be done like this:

BTW Hello World in LOLCODE

HAI

CAN HAS STDIO?

VISIBLE "HAI WORLD!"

KTHXBYE

Here is the compiler available from Google: http://code.google.com/p/lolcode-dot-net. The only problem I've had with the compiler is having it find the STDIO library. It's not included.

Running example of LOLcode on the Motron server: http://www.avis-studios.info/lol/index.php. The source can be shown by changing "php" to "lol".

I've heard about this before, and I don't it that funny…

at least not enough to devote an entire blog to it.
