The Ruby scripting language serializes "Hashes" -- a form of associative array -- in a certain way:

```ruby
3.0.0 :072 > x= { a: "1234", b: "4567" }
=> {:a=>"1234", :b=>"4567"}
```

It's actually very similar to JSON. However, a certain webserver responds with this format, and not JSON. I'm supposed to parse that. With JavaScript.

You think I don't know the flaws of things like blockbots, but I do. I just choose to not deal with them until they become an issue. Because literally every day I'm always dealing with something that is a problem right now. And most of the time it's things that are totally out of my control.
