I hate python, but it is still invaluable to me for its ability to let me get shit done. Getting meaningful data from a 100mb CSV? No problems. Everything I need can be found in the STDlib.
From my main perspective (scheme programmer): I am constantly amazed by the bad code python programmers write in scheme. Take a nice recursive function, sprinkle it with set! (which leads to boxing and general slowness in many implementations) and if that wasn't slow enough for you, wrap it in a call/cc to be able to return from arbitrary places in the function. As a bonus, forget to discard the captured continuation to make your program use insane amounts of memory.
Then proceed to complain on Reddit.
