In this context, regular expressions are a Highland Bagpipe:

- arguably not a proper example

- have their mystique, which attracts the neophyte

- integrate poorly with others

- go REALLY wrong with seemingly innocent changes

- can be great when done correctly

- but are mostly an argument in favor of more modern approaches

- Originally used to frighten enemies in battle

Well, now:

"At the hight of the battle, after the 79th formed another square the men started to waver. At this point Piper MacKay took up his pipes, stepped out of the safety of the square and started playing. As the French Cavalry attacked he marched around the square, in full view of the enemy and played the piobaireach "Cogadh no Sith,” also known as “War or Peace.” A few first-hand, written diaries of the battle make mention of this moment, making it one of the earliest accounts of a specific piobaireachd being played on the field of battle."

"Angus MacKay gives the text [of “War or Piece"] at greater length, and perhaps completely:

Is comadh leam s’ comadh leam cogadh na sìth ann. Marbhair sa chogadh na chrochair sa’n t-shith mi.

‘I don’t care, I don’t care, war or peace. I’ll be killed in war or hanged in peace’

Oh flower of Scotland, when will we see your like again?

Isn't this comic already years old? I'm not sure everything holds up, and it needs to have Go and Rust added as well.
