Alternate analogy for brainfuck: Bash your head against the wall until it turns into a table.

EDIT: The wall, not your head.

ASM: You clear your RAM before you can shoot yourself in the foot.
Minecraft: Your programs run on computers larger than the vacuum tube ones of the 50's.

EDIT: Java : Language you speak on coffee table. :P

Brainf*ck: A large pile of wood splinters. Skilled programmers can theoretically make a table with it, but no one has ever actually managed to do it.

Java: A table made out of solid iron. Anyone can quickly start using it as a table and it can be melted down to make more tables, but only the truly deluded would seriously claim that it's elegant or efficient.

Lua: A smaller table made out of thin gauge steel. It's still somewhat heavy, but any normal person can carry it around, unlike the Java table. However, it's less likely to survive an artillery barrage.

Casio-BASIC: make as many tables as you'd like but have no way to remove old ones because you cannot draw with the color white
Logged

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)

Stagecast: Make a table from a children's "build your own table" kit but if you make one mistake it doesn't work. And sometimes it just doesn't feel like working.

TI Basic:
Easy to make table, but you can only see seven pieces at a time

Python: Planning out a table.. oh wait it is already there

Game Maker:
Draw a table and then when you put it in the room it works

DS Game maker:
Like game maker, but with many more obscure errors

Pseudo Code: Making a hypothetical table

Basic256/KidBasic:
Learn how to build tables and make a nice model of one in the process

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...
