gollark: Actually, why not be more x86-64 and make your integers be `SYSCALL whatever` instead?
gollark: But it makes the syntax highlighting mildly confusing.
gollark: Maybe call it INTEGER or INTEGRAL instead.
gollark: Er, why r8, r9, r11 etc? It seems arbitrary.
gollark: ```assembly pop r8 pop r8 pop r9 pop r9 add r8, r9 push r8```
