Nooooooooo, it doesn't work OK at all!!!

It just works if I call to the redefined << method with DOT and
arguments between ( ):

  my_array.<<("hola","pepe")     # Note the DOT in .<<
  => ["hola: pepe"]

  my_array<<("hola","pepe")      # Without DOT
  SyntaxError: compile error
  (irb):11: syntax error, unexpected ',', expecting ')'
  my_array<<("hola","pepe")
                                   ^
                                   from (irb):11
                                   from :0

Why??
