Being the "debugging wizard" on your team is a curse disguised as a compliment. Sure, you're respected for your skills, but now you're drowning in everyone's nightmare tickets while they work on the shiny new features. Your reward for competence? More pain. The ultimate programming career trap—excel at something difficult and that's all you'll ever do again.

Forgot The Conditional

Classic infinite loop tragedy. The poor dev took "wash, rinse, repeat" at face value without implementing a break condition. This is why code reviews exist, folks. Your shower routine shouldn't need a stack overflow exception to terminate. Next time, try "wash, rinse, repeat until clean " – it's those edge cases that'll kill ya.

Overreliance On LLMs

The modern developer's secret weapon: copy-pasting AI-generated code without understanding a single line of it. Nothing says "senior engineer" like frantically Googling what your own code does when someone asks about it. The best part? That magical moment when you realize you've been confidently deploying code that you've essentially been taking dictation on. "It validates form data" is just fancy speak for "I have absolutely no idea what this eldritch horror does but it hasn't crashed production yet."

Encountering Bug On A Friday

OH MY GOD, the AUDACITY of someone suggesting I should actually FIX a bug on a FRIDAY?! 💅 Honey, please! That's what GitHub issues were INVENTED for! Why would I risk my precious weekend sanity when I can just slap that bug with an issue label, dramatically push it to the backlog, and strut away like the procrastination royalty I am? Monday-Me can deal with that nightmare - Friday-Me is already mentally at happy hour! #SorryNotSorry

The Edgecase Won

You spent THREE DAYS refactoring that beautiful function to perfection. You were SO proud. Then that ONE ridiculous edge case comes along like a wrecking ball and DESTROYS EVERYTHING! Now your elegant 10-line masterpiece has morphed into a 200-line MONSTROSITY with seventeen nested if-statements and a comment that just says "I'm sorry." The function works, but at what cost? AT WHAT COST?! Your dignity lies in shambles, and somewhere, somehow, that edge case is laughing at you.
