Why am I seeing a lot of this pattern lately:

OP: Got problem with string
+- A: Suggested a regex-based solution
   +- B: Quoted "Some people ... regex ... two problems."

or

OP: Writes some regex, found problem
+- A: Quoted "Some people ... regex ... two problems."

      +- A: Suggested PyParsing (or similar)
