I'm Not Mad I Just Want To Talk

Oh. My. GOD! The absolute TRAGEDY of every IT professional's social life! 😭 You think you're impressing someone with your fancy "architect" title, only to watch their excitement PLUMMET into the abyss when you add those fatal two letters: "IT-". The disappointment is so palpable you could build a data center with it! One minute they're imagining you designing the next Burj Khalifa, the next they realize you're just the person who tells everyone to "try turning it off and on again." THE HORROR!

The ultimate developer escape hatch has arrived! Some genius created a GitHub repo called "git-blame-someone-else" with 11k stars and counting. It's basically the digital equivalent of writing "not my fault" in your commit messages, but automated. The repo description says it all: "Blame someone else for your bad code." Finally, a way to attribute those questionable 3 AM coding decisions to your coworkers! The MIT license is just chef's kiss—legally allowing you to distribute your blame. Who needs accountability when you have this repo? Your tech debt just became somebody else's problem!

Ah, the classic "I'll just wing it without version control" tragedy. Four months of work obliterated by a cursor mishap because someone thought Git was just a British insult. This poor soul is basically asking "how do I lock the barn door?" after the horse has not only escaped but taken the entire barn with it. The irony of asking about backups after losing everything is the silent scream every tech lead hears in their nightmares. Pro tip: If your "backup strategy" is crossing your fingers and whispering "please don't break" to your computer, you might want to reconsider your life choices. Or at least install Git.

Started the day jamming to music while writing code that "totally works" – ended it staring at this electrical nightmare wondering which wire broke your production server. That poor technician is basically all of us at 4:30pm on a Friday when someone reports a "small bug" in the feature you pushed this morning. The only difference is his tangled mess is visible to everyone, while yours is safely hidden in a Git repository where only your therapist and future you will judge it.

The difference between how versioning should work and how it actually works in some codebases. According to semantic versioning, you increment the major version (like 1.0 to 2.0) when you make changes that break backward compatibility. But then there's that one developer who breaks something with literally every commit and somehow still has a job. Their changelog probably just reads "Fixed stuff, broke other stuff" for every release. It's basically the software development equivalent of playing Russian roulette with a fully loaded gun.

Alternate Jurassic Park ending: Dennis Nedry realizes he's the only IT guy maintaining a critical system with actual dinosaurs and demands fair compensation. Hammond reluctantly agrees instead of lowballing him. Movie ends peacefully, no one gets eaten, and the park probably has working door locks. The real horror was the salary negotiation all along.
