Wouldn't be out of place at a marketing agency, with about the same level of truth too.

In what sense? The one thing you can say about Perl is that it's a huge language, so the anti-perl would be a very small language. Go isn't a very small language (like Forth), it isn't even a small one (like Smalltalk or Self) it's about the same size/complexity as an early Java. Somewhat bigger in some ways (more magical builtins and constructs) somewhat smaller in others (simpler visibility rules, no synchronised methods/blocks), but in the best case it's a wash.

Perl is also very contrarian.
