When you spent years mastering tree inversions in C++ with all those pointer gymnastics, memory leaks, and segmentation faults only to watch some kid ask ChatGPT to do it in 5 seconds. The audacity. The betrayal. Back in my day, we debugged with print statements and cried silently into our mechanical keyboards.

When CSS gets mildly annoying, my brain immediately abandons all logic and jumps straight to flexbox – that magical layout tool we barely understand but desperately hope will fix everything. It's the developer equivalent of hitting your TV when it stops working. The lizard brain takes over, and suddenly we're throwing display: flex at problems that don't even need it.

OH. MY. GOD. This is literally the PHP developer's mantra in its purest form! While your codebase is LITERALLY ON FIRE with security vulnerabilities, deprecated functions, and spaghetti code that would make an Italian chef weep, you're just over here perfecting your eyeliner game! 💅 PHP devs have mastered the art of selective blindness - ignoring warnings, notices, and that one function that's been "temporarily" patched since PHP 5.3. Meanwhile, they're strutting around with their perfectly styled syntax, acting like they didn't just use a 15-year-old framework to build a modern web app! The gothic aesthetic is just *chef's kiss* perfect - because maintaining PHP in 2024 is basically a horror movie where you're both the victim AND the killer!
