I've attempted to learn Ruby. I know C++/C#/Java/Objective C. Yet I still come back to PHP. I can't explain it. I like PHP. I understand PHP. There are nice people willing to help me with PHP. PHP does what I ask.
It's not the greatest. It's no MIT Graduate. But I like working with it. PHP works hard and fast, plus it's a little fun.
I feel there is more important stuff for me to do with my life than worry about the structure of a common language.
I don't know, if anyone can help me understand my attraction it would be most appreciated.
