Why would that cause the same feeling?

I'm not sure if you're taking the piss or not but I'm going to choose to believe you're asking in good faith!

The code just feels... messy, unfamiliar, almost chaotic - but the semicolons and curly brackets in a neat little row, formatted in a satisfying way, is like an island of calm and order in the middle of a formatting clusterfuck.

A moment of serenity in the middle of a riot, one may think.

Ohhhh thanks for the explanation, I'm a bit stupid :3

Also, I didn't mean it in a bad way, a genuine question. Thanks for assuming it's in good faith ^^
