True Story

Ah, the eternal language war! The meme shows C++ syntax (the massive elephant) looking down at Python syntax (the tiny penguin), while a confused programmer (the old man) is stuck with some bizarre hybrid monstrosity. That virtual def foo() with curly braces is like showing up to a formal dinner wearing swimming trunks and a tuxedo jacket. When you've been context-switching between languages all day, your brain eventually short-circuits and creates these Frankenstein abominations. The real horror isn't the bugs – it's the moment you can't remember which language you're supposed to be writing in!
