It is very interesting how, often when one haphazardly produces a language for a particular purpose, one winds with a language which both "sucks" and is orders of magnitude better for that particular purpose than any other language. Arguable examples include Php, Matlab, shell-script and many others.

I'm creating an ad-hoc language right that also has this quality. I cringe as I shoe-horn one or another crude extensions into it and then step back and realize that for its particular purpose, it would be harder to do that much better.
