Eegh, even in high school (thirty-something Millennial here) I got that. "Woooaaahh, is that code there?!?" "Uhh... it's an article? It's in plain English. You know, your own native language? There's even a class at this school called that. I know you know this because you were in that class last period. What I'm saying is, I don't understand how the same language you just read out loud an hour ago suddenly looks like arcana on a computer screen."

... It's extra weird because no one ever just happened to go shoulder-surfing when I was actually programming. 🤷
