Annoying your coworkers with masking JavaScript functions to look like Objective-C calls

gistfile1.js

// Yeah, what is null? Let's make it nil
var nil = null;

var objc_call = function(magic) {
  if (magic === nil) {
    return nil;
  }
  
  var args = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1);
  
  // TODO: Object traversal would be possible, but that's just taking the joke too far
  return (args.length > 0) ? magic[0][magic[1]].apply(magic[0], args) : magic[0][magic[1]];
};

// Redefining this
var self = this;

var stringObj = objc_call([self, 'String']);
var docId = objc_call([document, 'getElementById', 'test']);

Deleted my previous comment, but I like the concept. Not quite accurate though. See http://nshipster.com/nil/
