Apart from making me laugh, it made me think a little. So I thought some more. Then I stopped thinking and picked my nose. Then I thought some more again.

I came up with this as the world’s first (I think) “CharvaScript”:

alrite mate
  got ciggy mate?
  got a light mate?

  mate, ciggy is "Marlboro"
  mate, light is "Zippo"

  av got ciggy and " " and light for you mate

nawww thanks mate

This is a new flavour of the classic “Hello World.” It outputs “Marlboro Zippo”.

I’m sure you can work it out by yourself how it’s interpreting the script into an executable code path.
