I really disagree with your point on the community valuing monkeypatching so much. Yes, it's a tool. Yes, it has it's place. No, it's not the favorite tool in our belt. And no, it's not something you should use always. At least, IMHO.

Yeah i know a lot of people rant about monkey patching. It's one of those things the community does but doesn't want to promote. Monkey Patching is the recreational drug of the Ruby Community.
