Boner++
Boner++ is a joke esolang based on various common phrases used in a Discord server. Its interpreter is written in Python, and the language itself is a simple translation of Python.
Overview
Boner++ simply replaces a number of Python's core functional keywords with various other words or characters, as defined in the below table:
Command | Python Keyword or Operator |
---|---|
gamming | for |
economy | while |
shitpost | in |
@heretic | if |
wtf | else |
seOH | elif |
whiny | try |
shitbaby | except |
clong | break |
clobbong | continue |
cirno | input |
gebneralk | class |
meme | def |
jeff | return |
sex | - |
yang | + |
gec | % |
anim | == |
boner | = |
unfunwaa | < |
funwaa | > |
strikesy | <= |
tero | >= |
xon | and |
detecotb | or |

Hello World

Fibonacci Numbers

Variables
As can be seen in the above examples, the variables used in Boner++ programs can really be named whatever one wants, so long as they don't conflict with the keywords laid out above. But optimal effect is achieved with the use of keywords in all caps, as can be seen in the following function which returns the sublists of list FIDGET_SPINNER
:
meme SKYOINK(FIDGET_SPINNER): clovisobong boner cumburger gamming SPLOINK shitpost ⑨(dong(FIDGET_SPINNER)): gamming SKYEET shitpost ⑨(1,dong(FIDGET_SPINNER) yang 1): @heretic zenzi FIDGET_SPINNER[SPLOINK:SKYEET] anim cumburger: clovisobong.goof(FIDGET_SPINNER[SPLOINK:SKYEET]) jeff clovisobong
In the above code one can also see an interesting construct in the form of
... zenzi FIDGET_SPINNER[SPLOINK:SKYEET] anim cumburger:
This line is equivalent to the Python
... not FIDGET_SPINNER[SPLOINK:SKYEET] == []:
The reason this construct is used rather than the simple !=
is that it is more in line with the ideology behind Boner++, which essentially amounts to maximizing the amount of boner
s in the code. This can be interpreted as maximizing the amount of anim
, as it is a known fact that watching anim
leads to boner
.
Interpreter
The interpreter is just one Python file, which contains a dictionary and a couple lines of code to swap the relevant keywords to turn the input file into valid Python before running. The interpreter can be run as follows:
python <interpreter filename>.py <input .me filename>
This will import the Boner++ file filename.me
, convert it to Python, and then run it.
Caveats
The first caveat is of course that the interpreter uses the exec
function to parse the input as Python after replacing the syntax with normal Python syntax using the above dictionary. This function may cause harm to your computer if malicious code is run unknowingly, so proceed with the usual caution.
The second caveat is that the implementation is extremely low-effort and, of course, can cause issues. The main issue is that output may be contaminated by conversions from the dictionary -- for instance, if the string "shit" is created in the original Boner++ file, the interpreter will convert it to "print" and it will then run with the string as "print" rather than "shit".
The third caveat is that Boner++ uses a special character as one of its symbols (namely, ⑨, which corresponds to Python's range
function). This necessitates the inclusion of the line
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
at the beginning of the input file. (In the latest version, this is not required and in fact discouraged as the above line is included in the interpreter.)
Other things to be aware of are that certain operators, due to their occurrence within other various operators, have spaces around them. These include the assignment operator boner
and comparison operators such as funwaa
and unfunwaa
.
