Why I Have Trust Issues With Users

Ah, the classic uninitialized pointer bug. You spend 8 hours debugging, questioning your career choices, contemplating a life as a goat farmer, only to discover you forgot to write ptr = malloc(sizeof(int)) . Meanwhile, your program's been happily accessing random memory addresses like a drunk tourist navigating Tokyo subway. The wall behind the character is a perfect representation of your sanity after staring at memory dumps for half a day.

Your fingers turn to thumbs, and your brain decides it's the perfect time to completely forget that language you've been using for 5 years. Nothing says "imposter syndrome activation" like coding with an audience!

Ah, the classic "I'm a hacker" flex that crumbles faster than a website with no CSRF protection. This meme perfectly captures that moment when someone brags about their "elite hacking skills" but can't actually name a single CVE number or explain what SQL injection is. It's like claiming you're a chef because you can microwave ramen. The second panel's challenge to "name every vulnerability" is that perfect reality check we all need to deliver to the cousin who "hacked" their ex's Facebook by using a saved password. The final "I set the bar too low" admission is just *chef's kiss* - the universal experience of realizing that in the world of security, the Dunning-Kruger effect has claimed another victim.
