Joke language list
This is a list of esoteric languages that are completely unusable for programming even in theory, trivial and less interesting variations on existing esoteric languages, or too underspecified to determine any potential usability. Generally speaking, they are not of any interest except for potential humor value.
For esoteric languages that are potentially interesting in some way, or that are actually capable of running programs and producing a useful output, see the normal list of esoteric languages.
Like for that other list, items here will eventually be removed if they don't link to a page on this wiki.
General languages
- �BRING BACK THE OLD SANDBOX, is a joke language in which the creator claims "is definitely a memorial language, and calling it a joke is an insult to the hundreds of people hurt in the wrath of the hostile sandbox attacks" but that's actually not the case and the whole "wrath of the hostile sandbox attacks" thing was made up. It also happens to be unusable for programming, but that should be out of the question.
