That's correct. You could use: !isActive && ($parent.toggleClass('open'), do_something_else()) but I don't think anyone would advise it.

  Actually, you are all missing Crockford's real point, which is that they are considering making ! a binding deference of function objects. If they do, then this: clearMenus() !isActive && $parent.toggleClass('open') Becomes this: clearMenus()!isActive && $parent.toggleClass('open'); And not this: clearMenus(); !isActive && $parent.toggleClass('open'); The no semi-colon crowd is ridiculous. There are no good arguments for omitting semicolons!

    there are even fewer good arguments for changing the semantics of the fucking logical negation operator 17 years down the line in a dynamic language with billions of end users and no discrete versioning

      About as logical as using the logical negation operator for a purpose other than logical negation. :-) So, how would you implement this dereferencing feature? given that this wouldn't be an issue if you added a semicolon, not sure why you are so hetup there...
