I'll train you." 10 years later, your training is complete, but your time spent with the Dark Lord has given you some conflicting feelings. by IndependentWin6

Reply to ELI5: why is using "goto" considered to be a bad practice in programming? by Dacadey
As a side note: goto is often used in code golfing (the act of trying to write a piece of code in as small amount of characters as possible) because well, it's shorter than writing 'while(1)' for example.
In the case of PICO-8 (and by extension Lua) it's the difference between "
::x::do stuffgoto x" and"while 1 dodo stuffend" which is 2 characters longer
