God kills a kitten every time you upload a humourous module which is not useful to the CPAN and don't put it in Acme::*. | [reply] |

Speak for your own God. My God kills a puppy (not a dog man/woman/person i guess).

Acme::Jive - (may already be created). Simply reads in a string and returns the string in Jive format.
When you post something like that you may want to put an informative link there. Maybe it's just me, but I don't have the slightest idea what "Jive format" could be and a quick Google search doesn't seem to shed enough light on it.
Ass::Crack - This mod just may be my most useful. It will accept as input a forum question. It will determine if the questions is of the "please do my assignment/homework for me" variety, and create an appropriate response.
If you really can do that, then definitely it should not be an Acme:: module...

Yes, I have. But don't call me Shirley in any case. Oh, and I saw it in Italian. I can remember the "combacka - siddonna" flashing lights though...

Input:The chicken wasn't cooked correctly and now I am sick.
Output:Some mofo belayin butta down to da bown be jackin me up.
Jive is a kind of dialect. Almost its own language.

Kind of reminds me -not unexpectedly- of Jim's dialogues in "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn", which I had the unfortunate idea of reading in English as a young boy (I'm Italian!) but which I every now and again I re-read, since incidentally I still consider it to be one of the best books of I ever read, not to say the archetype of modern American travel fiction!

I've been pondering Perl::ReadMyMind, for when I'm out of debugging ideas and I just think the proggy should do what I want it to do, not what I told it to do...

Didn't somebody already do this?
I just did a quick super search, but couldn't find it.
But I swear I've seen it before - perhaps somebody knows where it is?
