Blackout Poetry: Developer Edition

The eternal junior dev experience: write 50 tests for every semicolon. Your two-line function might look innocent, but without those 100 test cases, civilization itself might collapse. Senior devs never explain why - they just raise a finger and invoke the sacred mantra of "mysterious and important work." Meanwhile, you're wondering if testing that your function returns null when given the ASCII value of your cat's birthday is really necessary for production stability.

When your debugging session gets interrupted by a rubber duck that actually works. The developer starts explaining their CSS padding issue to ChatGPT, notices something's wrong, and suddenly the rubber duck falls out of nowhere—forcing them into accidental rubber duck debugging. The irony? The duck solved the problem before ChatGPT could even respond. Proof that sometimes the best debugging tool is just talking to an inanimate object that judges you silently from your desk drawer.

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute TRAGEDY of spending four hours debugging your code only to realize you wrote this MASTERPIECE of a function and then just... forgot to call it?! 💀 It's like baking the world's most perfect soufflé and then leaving it in the kitchen while you serve everyone empty plates! The monkey's face is literally ALL OF US having that moment of pure existential despair when we realize our problem wasn't some complex algorithmic nightmare—it was just our brain cells taking an unscheduled vacation! Fun fact: Studies show programmers spend up to 50% of their time debugging, and approximately 90% of that time is just staring dramatically at the screen while questioning every life choice that led to this moment.
