so this is a programming language for when we aren't working? please elaborate

  Exactly. The author is active on the Code Golf Stack Exchange and wrote this programming language with code golding in mind, which is viewed as relaxing by some.

  Yeah, that was the idea. Just a language for fun and specifically for code golf (solving programming problems in as small a program as possible). In the case of Retina, it turned out the language is actually pretty useful for throwaway scripts for string manipulation, so I actually am using the language while working occasionally, but that was definitely not a design goal. :D
