<mathrick> so there's this song, right, that goes "all I want to do is make love to you"
<mathrick> this is a classic case of an inexperienced / bad coder using unnecessarily verbose and inefficient expressions in a misguided attempt to make things more readable
<mathrick> compare the idiomatic version: "all I want to do is you". Shorter, more readable AND more to the point
<mathrick> remember, kids, not using idiomatic expressions and commenting on obvious parts of the code will get you to the special code hell
