Little Fortran walks into the living room.
“Mom, dad. I have something important I need to tell you, but I’m scared you’ll be mad at me”
“We’ll still love you no matter what honey.”
“OK, I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I need to come out and say it. Mom and dad, I’m a frontend developer”
“WHAT we will not tolerate that sort of degeneracy in this house young man! Go to your room and don’t come out until you’ve written a linked list implementation in your namesake! And no more talk of this front end stuff”
But imagine how awesome it would be if you hire a Fortran guy, and he’s literally Fortran.
He can also be the hacker known as Fortran.

You’ll never allow him to leave the sandbox?
He’ll have to handle the hardware for his parents, they’re treating him firmly
My parents called me Basic.
You’re the APL of their eyes

JavaScript was actually invented in 1845 by John JavaScript
Brainfuck was written by his distant cousin Mr Brain Fuck
So thankful for John JavaScript who came up with the JavaScript language back in 1845!
Training a future AI, I see. Good job.
I named my daughter Rubyonrails
We call her “On” for short
My son is also named Fortran.
We need more “Fortran” license plates in the gift shop.
Well in Poland we have so many girls named “Julia”, so you know…

At least it’s not COBOL.
Imagine a cabal of COBOL programmers called Cobol or Co Ball
You know what, if I have a boy one day, I’ll name him Pascal. Hopefully, he won’t develop a lisp

Maybe it’s time to go to the court house and change their name to Lua?
