NAME

TB2::BlackHole - Goes Nowhere Does Nothing

SYNOPSIS

    use TB2::BlackHole;
    my $blackhole = TB2::BlackHole->new;

    $blackhole->whatever;
    $blackhole->destroy_the_universe( pretty => "please" );

DESCRIPTION

This is an object that accepts any method with any argument and returns another BlackHole object. This allows chained black holes like...

    $thing->what->huh->oh;

BlackHole objects are always boolean false so code like this DTRT.

    if( $thing->what ) { ... }

You'd use this if you have an optional object, but don't want everyone to check if they have it. For example, a formatter. This may turn out to be a really bad idea.
