First Scripting Language for Web

I want to get off my mind of C and ((Scheme)) for a while and learn a scripting language for the web. My professor asked me if I could do a Javascript job for him and I said, I'd have to learn it first.

I want to learn Javascript or CoffeeScript but since the latter is simply a transcompiler for the other, should I learn Javascript first before getting to Coffeescript? I heard Coffeescript often makes more optimized code than Javascript, what if I just learn Coffeescript and submit the transcompiled code to my professor?

Javascript (client-side website scripting) should have been a very simple and very restricted bytecode specification with an equally simple yet clever and powerful interface to the document tree.

Dogescript much scripty. Wow so geeky.

This made me very angry.

>>43
Ever seen LOLCODE?

>>44
I have, and I found it rather cute in a retarded way.

>>45
Maybe you meant "retarded in a cute way"?

>>45
But Dogescript is better than LOLCrap

>>47
You're like those retards who insist Javascript is better than PHP for web development.

Because drowning in a lake of piss is way better than doing so in a lake of vomit, right?
