Someone asks an engineer to "prove it" by naming every computer ever, and Richard responds with the perfect programmer solution: a loop that literally names every computer "ever." It's the coding equivalent of being asked to name every Pokémon and answering "Jeff. I've named them all Jeff." Technically correct—the best kind of correct! The classic programmer's malicious compliance through clever syntax rather than endless enumeration. Why memorize when you can automate?

The bell curve of intelligence strikes again! On both ends of the IQ spectrum (the 0.1% geniuses), we have pragmatic folks who simply use Excel to solve business problems. Meanwhile, the average developer (the 68% in the middle) is frantically panicking about building custom applications with a bazillion programming languages and frameworks. It's the classic "overthinking tech solutions" syndrome. The truly brilliant minds understand that sometimes the best tool is the one Karen from accounting already knows how to use. Why spend 6 months developing a custom app when a spreadsheet with some macros will do the trick? The irony is delicious - developers surrounded by JS, Python, Java, and dozens of frameworks, yet Excel has been quietly solving business problems since 1985. Sometimes the real 200 IQ move is knowing when not to code.

The four stages of developer delusion: Stage 1: "Sure, sounds easy enough... I think I can finish that task in 20 minutes" *confidently frames the world with hands* Stage 2: *grabs head in existential despair as reality sets in* Stage 3: *stretching in preparation for the long coding marathon ahead* Stage 4: "how do i make a browser" *desperately Googling basics* The classic 20-minute task that evolves into questioning your entire career choice. Tale as old as compiler time.

The five stages of debugging grief, captured on a single t-shirt! First comes the rage ("I hate programming"), then the denial with proper capitalization ("I hate Programming"), followed by the bargaining phase ("It works!"), and finally the sweet, sweet Stockholm syndrome ("I love programming"). The relationship between developers and their code is basically an emotional rollercoaster that loops every 47 minutes. Just another day in the life of someone whose happiness depends entirely on whether a semicolon is in the right place.
