Care to elaborate what is 'wacky ass' in Perl 6?

Perl 6 is pretty "wacky ass" throughout. The crazy blending of object orientation and functional programming, the twigils, the built-in support for PEGs, the scoping rules, the operators, lots of things.

I like it, though. Perl 6 is a fun language in which to program, and it's therefore one I like trying to use, even if said use is less than practical.
