Why Are They Like That

Nothing quite captures the existential dread of inheriting legacy code like Bugs Bunny contemplating his own mortality. One minute you're confidently accepting the task, the next you're reaching for that metaphorical pistol because the codebase looks like it was written by a caffeinated octopus with a keyboard. The sweet release of death suddenly seems preferable to figuring out why there's a comment saying "Don't touch this or everything breaks" next to a function named temporaryFix2013 . Bonus points if there's zero documentation and the original developer left to "pursue other opportunities" (translation: fled the crime scene).

Content I once won first place in my universities Poker Al competition. We had 2 hours to build a bot and first place was a new macbook. I was a freshmen and had no idea what I w doing. My algorithm was literally: if isMyTurn: goAllIn() 1 broke all the other bots, who started fold every single time jorbs-palace tigerterror Everyone else made Als, but only OP was playing poker.

OMG, the AUDACITY of management to starve us of the juicy performance problems we crave! 💀 For 364 days a year we're force-fed an endless buffet of mind-numbing bug fixes and feature requests, but HEAVEN FORBID we get ONE DAY to optimize something that actually matters! That sweet, sweet dopamine hit when you shave 200ms off a load time? PURE ECSTASY. But nooooo, we must suffer through the feature-request famine until the performance gods deem us worthy of their blessings. Intermittent fasting? More like intermittent SUFFERING! 😭

Asking for coding help on Twitter/X is like being a house cat who wants to hunt mice while surrounded by apex predators. The newbie asks an innocent question, and suddenly senior devs swoop in with increasingly complex alternatives that have nothing to do with the original problem. Junior: "How do I center a div?" 10x Engineer: "Nobody uses CSS anymore. Try this React component with styled-components." Staff Engineer: "Just migrate to Svelte." CTO: "We're rewriting everything in Rust and WebAssembly."

That fuzzy little demon behind the glass isn't offering help—it's making a threat . Every programmer knows that one rogue debugger can turn your beautiful codebase into a litter box of commented-out code and print statements. The cat's sinister expression says it all: "I'll find every bug in your code... and replace it with three more." It's basically Schrodinger's debugger—your code is simultaneously fixed and completely destroyed until you run it.
