Actionscript: Your program doesn't work!
Me: Ok... can you tell me why?
Actionscript: No!
Me: Hm, well, the error is happening here... let's throw in a try-catch.
Actionscript: Ok! Look, I caught an error!
Me: Great! What's the error code?
Actionscript: 1069!
Me: ... Well, that's not too helpful. What's the error message?
Actionscript: "Error #1069"!
Me: I will destroy you. Google, wanna help me out here?
Google: It means you tried to access a property that does not exist.
Me: Well why didn't you just say so? Sigh, ok, let's print out a stack trace, Actionscript.
Actionscript: Dude, I can't compile that, I don't know what trace_debug is!
Me: For heaven's sake, Actionscript. import global.trace_debug;
Actionscript: Oh. I got an error when printing out the stack trace!
Me: Ugh. Well, what's the error message?
Actionscript: "Error #1009"!
Me: For fuck's sake! Google?
Google: It's essentially the same as 1069.
Me: SERIOUSLY?! Arglblarbl, ok, let's be more deliberate about printing out our stack trace. Actionscript, please pretty-please with cherries on top tell me what the stack trace is.
Actionscript: It's null. :)
Me: SASSAFRASS! Fine. I'll put trace statements in all of my functions.
Actionscript: Dude, I can't compile that, I don't know what trace_debug is!
Java: Oh, by the way, I've decided to run out of memory, and now I'm going to vomit stack traces into the data your application needs to access.
Me: :suicide:

Actionscript: Hi! My name is Actionscript! I'm going to call myself an object-oriented language, but I'm also going to fly in the face of several well-established OO syntax conventions and completely fail at support for interfaces and inheritance!
