#2There's some sort of joke in here about there not being a working form that I don't really care about getting.

#3Haters gotta hate. (I had to do this. I've never been down-voted before and I wonder what it feels like.)
Re: Survey: Why Are You Using CoffeeScript?
#4I love mikeal's work and contributions to the node.js community — but I didn't care for this bit of satire. Some folks legitimately enjoy the experience of programming in CoffeeScript. I don't happen to be one of them. But I'm also not one to pass judgement on other programmers' choice of tools.
(EDIT: Although I do pass judgement silently.)

#5When did everyones sense of humour suddenly die? I literally can't get enough of CoffeeScript however I still think this is pretty funny, so the rest of you should be able to get over yourselves and laugh.

Maybe if Mikeal wrote it in CoffeeScript, he could have written it easily enough to have a real form.

Some people have been legitimately stuck using CoffeeScript because of rails or an employer or a client. These are among the people who will enjoy a lighthearted rant about CoffeeScript.

This was indeed pretty funny :)
I prefer CoffeeScript over JavaScript, but I can definitely understand people who don’t.

#10I dont get the joke. But what I really dont get is the "[..] JavaScript community would like to know[..]" part. Are we different communities now?
Why would one even care? It is like coding style. Use one or the other, just use the same on your team!
