That's not true, although there's a lot I took from FP. Like avoiding mutable state, and functional composition for data transformations.

This doesn't change the fact my code is OO - I use objects, composition, decoration, delegation and many other OO techniques, and in general try to avoid heavy inheritance-based patterns.

I can understand how people may think I'm trying to use ruby in an awkward way, but this is really not the case.



I find your Ruby code super awkward. Like you're trying to turn it into a language that it is not. At least it is not in my book but then again I'm just some random dude on the internet, a sample of one ;)
