Now, keep in mind, generally I don’t think of any language as particularly bad. Most languages exist for a reason. I’m currently of the mind that VB exists only to piss me off, and it was designed purely with that end in mind. Would you like an example?
C#:
if(myObject != null)
{
// do something
}
VB.NET:
If Not myObject Is Nothing Then
‘ do something
End If
not only does the exact same code take too damn long to write out, it looks dumb as hell.
