Why should I use quotes in Haskell like you guys do?
`fmap` instead of "fmap"

I've noticed several Haskell-related websites that the writers will use quotes like you guys do.

Because it differentiates starting quotes from ending quotes, which is crucial when dealing with nested quotations. Simple people have no use for it, since they will never be nesting quotes ever and will be quickly discouraged from it if they even try to wrap their heads around how to handle quotational scope using nothing for syntax than a single character, ``dumbass''.

Notice also that >>5-san places his punctuation marks outside of his quotation marks, thus ensuring that everything he quotes is at least as sane a construct as his entire statement.  When he says ``Because it differentiates starting quotes from ending quotes, which is crucial when dealing with nested quotations. Simple people have no use for it, since they will never be nesting quotes ever and will be quickly discouraged from it if they even try to wrap their heads around how to handle quotational scope using nothing for syntax than a single character, ``dumbass''.'', the punctuation is immediately obvious.

"In many older computer character sets, characters 96 (accent grave) and 39 (apostrophe) were mirror images of each other, or close to it, so their use together made for more elegant looking quotations. I"


i.e. using ``quotes'' is a pure meme gimmick.

Consider how much rage develops in the average prole when he sees these ``different quotes''.
From experience, it's considerable, but only some will bite.
Dropping them in an any situation will usually make someone attack you for it, and then you get to act incredibly smug and sarcastic and explain how everyone used to do it, how it was the standard, and how you're the only one left who still does it- wax lyrical about being the last sane person on the web of indecency, and how that just inflates your ego to no end.
Alternatively, question what they hate so much about it, and then ask ``well, do you want me to use »Finnish quotes» instead?
How about “English quotes”, «French quotes» -or, because you're probably some weaboo fucktard, 「Jap quotes」 ?
Then it's time for a finisher.
Personally, I'd go with:
``「Gomenosai」, ˁˁAutism-kunˀˀ.''
Very punchy, and if they get defensive you can only further ridicule them.

It's because enclosing delimiters should be directional. But some fucking retoid decided you'll be fine with ".
