balls VS SimplePHPEasyPlus

There was also Bash on Balls, in case you don't have that shiny cmd.exe on your machine

Also, see projects like Bash-on-Balls, which is an MVC-like web application framework written in Bash: https://github.com/jneen/balls

Same reason as this. If you want to create chaos for fun, i don't blame you. But don't add this to requirements.txt

This reminded me of "Bash on balls" , a joke web "framework" written in bash. I think it might have pre-dated this a bit?

This...except i thought the link was headed here. :)

But where is the dividing line? All right, https://github.com/Herzult/SimplePHPEasyPlus is an obvious satire. But it gives a point. For example, given the op is already using a not yet existing validate_json function. Why wrapping it in a class?

This is some joke library, right? Like this one: https://github.com/Herzult/SimplePHPEasyPlus ?

I mean, I don't think it's generational at all, there are plenty of libraries on Github that are meant to be fun and silly [1] [2] [3] [4].

I think we've largely just decoupled the fun and goofy projects from the mainline projects; I think businesses have less of a sense of humor than engineers.
