It is a play on John Lennons' and Yoko Onos' song [1] and in my personal opinion it conveys the content of the post much better than a simple "PHP sucks", because we are all used to hearing that all the time, and the post is not really about the suckiness of PHP itself, but rather prejudice against it and the people who use it in the dev community.

Your title breaks the guidelines [1] on multiple fronts:

please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize

Please don't do things to make titles stand out

So, it's clearly against the guidelines to modify titles to what you personally think is better.

And using that word in 2019 is extremely provocative and not appropriate to invoke when discussing programming languages.
