Shower Thought

That rare, mystical moment when your code executes flawlessly on the first try and you feel like some ancient prophet who's just performed a miracle. No debugging. No stack traces. No cryptic error messages. Just pure, divine execution— as written . You didn't expect it to work, you were already mentally preparing for hours of troubleshooting, and now you're simultaneously elated and suspicious. Is this a trap? Did you accidentally solve the wrong problem? The universe doesn't just hand out working code like this!

Ah, the quarterly ritual of revisiting your own code from the distant past. First comes the shock and horror. "Why would anyone write this garbage?" Then the dawning realization that you are the criminal mastermind behind this atrocity. Twenty years in this industry and I still leave cryptic comments like "fix this later" and "temporary solution" that somehow survive three product releases. The best documentation is always that moment of clarity in the fourth panel when you finally remember what sleep-deprived, deadline-haunted version of yourself thought this spaghetti nightmare was a good idea.

The classic programming classroom standoff! When the prof asks for questions, they're expecting softball queries about office hours or the syllabus. Instead, this brave student drops a data structures nuke about traversing binary trees without recursion. The professor's immediate pivot to "about my personal life..." is the universal signal of "I don't remember how to solve this either but will never admit it." The student's quick backpedal is the silent agreement to maintain the professor's dignity. This is basically the CS equivalent of mutually assured destruction.

Homer Simpson ripping out a "Free IT Advice" sign to reveal the sacred commandment of tech: "IF IT WORKS, DON'T TOUCH IT." This isn't just advice—it's the unspoken religion of every production environment. That mystical code that ran fine for 7 years? Written by a dev who left the company in 2015? Deployed on a server no one remembers the password to? Yeah, nobody's volunteering to "refactor" that bad boy. We just light candles and pray it continues working until retirement.
