Having used PHP and Java extensively in my career, it's always entertaining to read what people think about these languages.

I haven't touched PHP since college, so about a decade, but back then I compared it to a very disorganized but well equipped toolbox. Everything you need to do your projects is there, but it's scattered through 12 different unorganized drawers and cubbies, there's an annoying mix of metric and imperial stuff, plus some random bits and bobs you inherited from your grandfather that you have no idea what they do.
