I learned lolcode in college because we had to write a sorting algorithm in assembly and “any other programming language.”
I was trying to rank up in Codewars, and there was a 1kyu (hardest and worth the most points) kata only available in OCaml, so I learned it in order to solve.

Experienced me sees a language where parentheses are optional and I think “ew no”
I learned Go because I really liked the keyword go

Learned Python to try and hack into a porn site.
