Fixing old bits of code for my build tool so I can extend the damn thing and I'm throwing away so much shit. Can't stop man.

Pretty crazy as this code is, IIRC, 2 to 4 years old at most. And I am sure that I was feeling like an absolute legend when I wrote this ignominious fucking garbage, as in it is quite clever, just in a downright dogshit kind of way.

So I'm hacking away at this eternal monument to the abstract gonorrhea-infected bleeding and fully dilated defecating anus that are my past decisions, and I'm wondering, have I actually learned to write simpler code or am I just gonna repeat this process a few years down the road and get stuck in some kind of funky chronodisplacement self-sodomizing limbo.

Well, for one, I *am* very much simplifying the code because most of it I'm just outright deleting, and what I have to replace or rewrite is fairly succinct, so I'm feeling good about that. Second, and get this, now I have the advantage that I've actually used this piece of shit for a few years so I have the benefit of knowing where I fucked up from a user perspective, which is invaluable.

Yeah, I think I nailed it this time. No more fucking around; pinky-promise.
