Debugging 101

The ULTIMATE programmer flex isn't your GitHub stars or Stack Overflow rep—it's hitting F12 and editing HTML to make yourself look like a millionaire! 💸 HONEY, I'm not broke, I'm just one browser developer tool away from being FILTHY RICH! The look of sudden interest when your "bank balance" has more zeros than your production code has bugs is just... *chef's kiss* PRICELESS. Who needs actual money when you can just DOM-manipulate your way into looking like the next tech billionaire? It's basically the same thing! (Except when you try to pay for literally anything.)

When your payment structure is based on loop iterations instead of hours worked... suddenly that while(true) doesn't look like a bug anymore—it's a retirement plan! The classic infinite loop that would normally get you fired is now your ticket to swimming in cash like Scrooge McDuck. Just don't tell the project manager why the CPU usage is at 100% and the app hasn't responded in three days. Ka-ching with every cycle!

When your code doesn't work, the logical approach is to copy and paste it. When that fails, the truly sophisticated approach is to frantically copy the same thing multiple times before pasting it, as if the clipboard might suddenly decide to work better after the fifth Ctrl+C. The clipboard anxiety is real. Nothing says "I've completely lost control of my development process" quite like hammering Ctrl+C like you're trying to send an SOS in clipboard Morse code.

Y2K but make it space. Future programmers will stare into the void just like this when they realize all their systems store years as 4-digit integers. The face of a developer who just calculated how many legacy codebases need refactoring across thousands of planets. That's not exhaustion—that's the realization that management approved the budget for exactly half the time needed to fix it. Fun fact: The original Y2K bug cost $300 billion to fix. The Y10K bug will probably cost whatever the galactic equivalent of "your firstborn child and your retirement fund" is.

Documentation? Sorry, I don't speak that language. The sacred rule of coding: "If it works, don't touch it and definitely don't explain it." Future you will figure it out... or burn the codebase to the ground trying. That mysterious function without comments? It's not laziness—it's a puzzle box I've gifted to my colleagues. Think of it as team-building!
