The language itself is the same over-engineered bullshit as the programs that are written in it.

First there was plain and simple `write` procedure, every OS had it as syscall. Idiots combined it with `format`, to produce fprintf monster, instead of allowing write(format(format_string, args...))
Then some retarded mathematician invented `cunt << dick << endl;` "streams", which take some abstract types, to produce more abstract types, finally, through long sequence of complicated abstractions, expanding into fprintf.
But it was not enough! Now evil followers of this retarded mathematician invented these `monadic transformers` - all to hide semantics of good old `write` function.
