Future Twitter from 2025 coming in hot with the tech founder banter we didn't know we needed! Bill Gates asking what VIBE stands for in "Vibe Coding" only to have Linux creator Linus Torvalds drop the perfect acronym: "Very Inefficient But Entertaining." That's basically the definition of every side project I've ever built at 2AM while convincing myself it's "revolutionary." Writing 200 lines when 10 would do, but hey—it has RGB effects!

THE AUDACITY of clients to praise you for delivering on time when your code is literally held together with duct tape and prayers! 💀 That awkward handshake moment when they're all "thank you for your professionalism" while you're internally SCREAMING because 30% of your buttons are just sitting there, utterly useless, dumping their sad little lives into the console.log void. But hey, the client doesn't need to know that half your code is just digital confetti waiting to explode at the slightest provocation! Ship it and pray no one clicks the wrong thing!

The senior developer's villain origin story, captured in 4K. Facebook's infamous motto "Move Fast and Break Things" might sound inspirational on a Silicon Valley conference stage, but try saying that to someone who just spent 72 hours fixing production after your "innovative" commit bypassed code review. That look of pure contempt is what happens when you've lived through enough deployments to know that "moving fast" is just code for "technical debt we'll deal with never." The pistol whipping is merely a formality at this point.
