// basically all that matters is how setAll is called
//
// if you pass it on its own (i.e. {success: p.setAll})
// it'll be called on its own, with `this' being set to the
// default global object. in a browser, this is `window'.
// if you pass it in wrapped in a function that calls it as
// the member of an object (i.e. as above), it'll have
// `this' set to the object it's called from. here's an
// example:

function LOL() {
  this.herp = "derp";
}

LOL.prototype.rage = function() {
  console.log(this);
};

var lol = new LOL();

var a = function() { lol.rage(); }
var b = lol.rage;

a(); // will dump the `lol' object
b(); // will dump the `window' object
