Oh, so that’s where LYAH came from! I read it when I was first learning Haskell, and I recall being somewhat puzzled by the style. More recently, I know someone who stopped reading it in large part because of the style — it seems to have gone out of vogue now.

I’m fairly sure LYAH came from the Borat movie and not from why.

The title, perhaps. The illustrated guide format is more _why's bag, right?

(Though the texts are so different in tone and style I always thought the comparison was a bit shallow.)
