This was something that surprised me when I first learned about Perl 5 in college. Most people in the internet would parrot it as a "write-only" language and yet I've always being capable of getting the whole picture of a code snippet posted on Perl Monks, Reddit, Stack Overflow, etc. Granted I've always steered away from golf code which obviously has its place but shouldn't be mistaken as being the "de facto way" of writing Perl 5 or Perl 6 for that matter.
