Javascript with jQuery is probably the ugliest fucking syntax known to man.
$('select').each(function(){
//Do some inane eye-raping shit here
}).append().hide();
Pig disgusting.

now combine that with several layers of node callbacks and a couple or 10 IIFEs

I wouldn't call Haskell a well-designed language aesthetically, especially when you're dealing with a lot of code.
Disclaimer: I like Haskell, but that is one of my minor problems with it.

LISP is ugly and gay and poop

true. It's lack of concrete structure makes it a little hard to read, simply because it is a little more difficult for the eye to parse it.

There is no { or } in ALGOL. Did you get it confused with C++ or JavaScript? Go back to /g/. You can come back here when you know what basic ALGOL syntax looks like.

At least format it properly.
$('select')
.each(function() {
//Do some inane eye-raping shit here
} )
.append()
.hide();
Yeah, the closure syntax still sucks.
Perl 6 and Rust are better. Perl 6, @list.map: { "fun times" }. In Rust closures are so low-profile they're used as for-loops and you wouldn't know that from the syntax.
I like C++. I don't use classes or any of that OO buzzword garbage, but I like the //, and the ability to declare variables in the body of the function.

javascript is the most powerful language ever created. I pity you poor foolish blub programmers. Why don't you just learn functional programming? it's not that hard. This is why I code circles around you. This is why my startup will go public before acquiring google, amazon and microsoft, while your monkey code gets thrown into the trash and you get laid off.
