gollark: At this point I'm actually very tempted to just use BBCode or something.
gollark: Unfortunately it has a weird bug with emphasis/bold and punctuation in some places, so I had to look at this.

gollark: This is an actual regex used to parse Markdown by one project:```^(?:(\*(?=[`\]!"#$%&'()+\-./:;<=>?@\[^_{|}~]))|\*)(?![\*\s])((?:(?:(?!\[.*?\]|`.*?`|<.*?>)(?:[^\*]|[\\s]\*)|\[.*?\]|`.*?`|<.*?>)|(?:(?:(?!\[.*?\]|`.*?`|<.*?>)(?:[^\*]|[\\s]\*)|\[.*?\]|`.*?`|<.*?>)*?(?<!\)\*){2})*?)(?:(?<![`\s\]!"#$%&'()+\-./:;<=>?@\[^_{|}~])\*(?!\*)|(?<=[`\]!"#$%&'()+\-./:;<=>?@\[^_{|}~])\*(?!\*)(?:(?=[`\s\]!"#$%&'()+\-./:;<=>?@\[^_{|}~]|$)))|^_([^\s_])_(?!_)|^_([^\s_<][\s\S]*?[^\s_])_(?!_|[^\s,!"#$%&'()+\-./:;<=>?@\[^_{|}~])|^_([^\s_<][\s\S]*?[^\s])_(?!_|[^\s,!"#$%&'()+\-./:;<=>?@\[^_{|}~])```(it's generated from a slightly less insane one with`punctuation` in place of the big mess of punctuation characters, to be fair)
gollark: How about, you have a swarm of bees carry flash memory chips between your computers?
