Ok, this is starting to look like people speaking seriously about using
Intercal's COME FROM (http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ComeFrom)... can we just
step back and take a deep breath of AIR please? Seriously, this is
starting to creep me out.

COME FROM is very different, and (as with much of Intercal) was created specifically to be obtuse. Discussing it as if it's a useful feature tends to creep me out because I get the feeling someone might actually put it in a language I care about.
