My dumass thought op meant programming language, and I spent 2 minutes thinking of some sarcastic reply.
I know it's wrong, but there's something about the forbiddenness of JS that makes it sexy.

Ladies go crazy with C.
This won't work, and it's called C++, and that's C, not C++.
C is C++
Well, actually, [no it isn't].(https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibility_of_C_and_C%2B%2B)

Good to know. Thanks
