In the language Gulf of Mexico,

you can use any letters from the word "function" (as long as they're in order)

union foo () => ()

HUH?

Some languages start arrays at 0, which can be unintuitive for beginners. Some languages start arrays at 1, which isn't representative of how the code actually works. Gulf of Mexico does the best of both worlds: Arrays start at -1.

Oh, I see they're serious! Time to ditch JavaScript.

Naming

Both variables and constants can be named with any Unicode character or string.
const const letter = 'A'!
var const 👍 = True!
var var 1️⃣ = 1!
This includes numbers, and other language constructs.
const const 5 = 4!
print(2 + 2 === 5)! //true

This is a recipe for disaster I kinda wanna try

If you're unsure, that's ok. You can put a question mark at the end of a line instead. It prints debug info about that line to the console for you.

print("Hello world")?

Fucking sold, I was gonna learn rust but you've changed my mind
