The classic regex lifecycle in three simple steps: start with one problem, apply regex thinking it's the solution, end up with two problems. And yes, the plural of regex is absolutely "regrets" – a truth universally acknowledged by anyone who's ever tried to debug a pattern that worked perfectly in the testing tool but somehow fails spectacularly in production. It's like watching someone reach for regex to parse HTML. You want to stop them, but it's already too late. Their soul now belongs to the matching group demons.

The perfect metaphor for "vibe coding" doesn't exi— For the uninitiated, "vibe coding" is when your code works but you have absolutely no idea why. Just like the protagonist in Bedazzled who gets his wishes granted with catastrophic unintended consequences, your code technically does what you asked... but at what cost? That look of existential dread on his face is the same one you make at 3AM when your hacky solution works in production and now you're terrified to ever touch it again. The snake? That's the technical debt coiling around your neck.

Nothing screams "danger pay" quite like being told you'll be wrapping a COBOL mainframe system. For context, COBOL is a language from 1959 that's still running critical banking and government systems because nobody dares touch them. Creating a wrapper means you're building a modern interface around ancient, undocumented spaghetti code that predates the moon landing. The "then you can leave" energy is perfect because this is genuinely one of those nightmare scenarios where the compensation better be astronomical. You're essentially being asked to become an archaeologist, translator, and diplomat all at once—deciphering cryptic business logic written by programmers who are probably retired (or worse, still maintaining it). The code comments? Non-existent. The documentation? "Ask Jerry, but he left in 1987." Fun fact: COBOL still powers about 43% of banking systems and processes roughly 95% of ATM transactions. So yeah, the pay should be good, because you're literally keeping civilization's financial infrastructure from collapsing.
