I (still) work with a Classic ASP code base.
I kid you not, that there are VBScript functions, which call JScript (not JavaScript) functions, which in turn call VBScript functions.

I also worked with a system at one time that used node.js to create C# files on the file system, then use the C# compiler to create an executable and then run it. It was... not great.
