No one who wants to write brainfuck would admit they need help.

Which is ironic, because everyone who writes it needs help. I've been thinking about learning it to show off how mentally healthy I am.

brainfuck is a member of an exclusive club of languages where it's much easier to write a compiler for it than to read a program written in it.
