I like the syntax of C. I don't like having to malloc memory. PHP may not have a garbage collector, but I don't have to manually deallocate memory for the most part. Of course I still have to connect and disconnect from the database manually, and scrub sql parameters, but its easier to avoid mistakes in those two situations then you do with malloc and free.
