What do you like about PHP?

First post! Let's all go around the circle and each say one thing we like about PHP. 

I'll go first: it's easy to learn!

I didn't really know very much about programming and my friend told me I should check out PHP. I tried it out on my web shared hosting account and had no idea what I was doing, but I was able to figure out basic logic and syntax pretty easily. 

It blew my mind being able to create dynamic content that you couldn't make with just HTML. I had so much fun just playing around with it and seeing what happened, and I've been chasing that high ever since.

It CAN get pretty complex but I love that you can still do so much while keeping it really simple.
