The Quick Call Curse

Content Me, explaining my code and the bugs The rubber ducks

The eternal developer cycle: spend 8 hours heroically battling bugs, refusing to read documentation that would've solved everything in 5 minutes. Then swear you'll "do better next time" while we all know damn well you'll make the exact same choice again. The sword of stubbornness cuts both ways - sometimes you learn deeply by struggling, but mostly you're just wasting your Thursday because "how hard could this be?"

The only documented case of a developer experiencing genuine happiness at work - submitting their resignation letter. That moment when your coworker notices you're smiling for the first time since you inherited that legacy codebase with zero documentation and 8,000 TODOs. Nothing sparks joy quite like typing that final git commit with the message "Someone else's problem now" and knowing you'll never again have to attend those 2-hour sprint planning meetings where the product manager keeps saying "how hard could it be to add just one more feature?"

Oh snap! Debugging as an onion is the most painfully accurate metaphor ever created. 🧅 You start with a simple bug, then peel back one layer only to find ANOTHER bug hiding underneath. Three layers deep and you're questioning your career choices. Five layers in and you're sobbing into your keyboard at 3AM while your roommate wonders if you're having an existential crisis. (Spoiler: you totally are.) The worst part? Sometimes you fix the bug and have NO IDEA which layer actually solved it! *chef's kiss* Pure coding chaos.

Oh look, it's the ultimate programmer dilemma! Should you select ALL the squares because that code is absolutely crawling with bugs, or hit skip because technically none of them contain an actual insect? That obfuscated JavaScript nightmare with all those hex values and weird variable names is the kind of code that makes senior devs wake up in cold sweats. It's probably some minified production code that nobody dares to touch because "it works, don't ask how." The real joke is that after 15 years in this industry, I'd still stare at this captcha for a solid minute wondering if I should click all squares or none. Then I'd just refresh the page and hope for traffic lights instead.
