The irony of a customer service rep telling a programmer to clear the cache is like a civilian telling a bomb technician to cut the red wire. "Have you tried clearing your cache?" is literally our first debugging mantra, right after turning it off and on again.

Next they'll be telling me to check if my computer is plugged in or suggesting I update my browser. The audacity.

Ah yes, nothing says "I'm a serious developer" like coding in Comic Sans. The top panel shows proper monospaced fonts that actual professionals use, while the bottom panel celebrates fonts that would get your PR rejected faster than a SQL query without a WHERE clause. Choosing Jokerman font is basically announcing "my code works through sheer luck and black magic." Next time you wonder why your colleague's code is buggy, check their IDE settings first.
