It is true that script kiddies write ugly and unreadable Perl code. It is also true that professionals write highly disciplined and beautiful Perl code.
Incidentally, on the subject of object orientation, I concur with Sriram Srinivasan's preference for Composition instead of Inheritance. He writes in "Advanced Perl Programming":
"Then when John Ousterhout's Tk came along, I marveled at the ease of creating widgets, even though it was in C and provided all the features that Motif provided (and much more). The Tk architecture used composition, not inheritance. I have been suitably chastened."
