This is brilliant. Bright, glowing, radiant brilliance.

I must agree. I am reminded of the April Fool's joke about the "Parrot" language (not the real VM inspired thereby), which claimed to combine the best of Perl and Python with code like this:

# copy stdin to stdout, except for lines starting with #
while left_angle_right_angle:
   if dollar_underscore[0] =eq= "#":
       continue_next;
   }
   print dollar_underscore;
}
