Having used JS along with somewhere north of 10 other languages over the years... JS is the most painful, even moreso than Perl which was close.

Classes and objects are 100x better than the crap they've come up with to fix JS so far so stop complaining.

Oh no it's not functional???!!! Javascript never was. It was always supposed to be an OO language the implementation is just shit. For the love of God everyone just shut up and let them fix it. Trying to change JS from what it was meant to be into something else entirely is just going to make things even worse
