So, PHP is the one where they mix all of the ingredients in your liquor cabinet together and top it with a raw egg, right?

The PHP lists its ingredients with completely inconsistent units, some of which haven't existed for hundreds of years. Most ingredients are listed at least twice, some times indicating name brands, sometimes with generic names, and occasionally referring to specific off-brand varieties. The instructions themselves are easy to follow, include appropriate metric conversions, and tell you to throw away about half of the initial ingredients.
I will more say the PHP version will be nothing fancy, have a beer kick back and relax while others try to impress with new ways of solving an old problem :)
I was thinking that the recipe for PHP would be: 1. Drink entire bottle of tequila 2. Vomit into a dirty glass 3. Drop glass
As a PHP developer who likes tequila. I'm down for this.
drink(tequila) or die();
Come on, man.

    drink($tequila) or die();
So close...

    drink($tequila) or die("Vomiting...");
That wouldn't work as there is SOME logic and reasoning to that. We'd have to come up with something else.
