The music excited me.
Long scrolls through application code bored me.

I agree with the suggestion of examples involving literals.  I used j to 
parse html.  Due to errors in the html my j program worked whereas the 
python html parser I had initially tried failed.  I used a lot of box 
cuts with member (E.) to compute frets.

J can solve exactly the same set of problems as a Turing machine.
J itself is the expressive beauty.
