It's Evolving, Just Backwards

Ah yes, modern gaming in a nutshell! A massive bear labeled "NEW AAA GAMES" requiring a nuclear-powered rig with "RTX 5090, AMD RX 7900, 64GB RAM, 1TB SSD" just to launch the title screen. Meanwhile, the humble wolf "DOOM 1993" runs perfectly on a calculator with "CPU, GPU (OPTIONAL)" specs. The real joke? That GitHub Actions workflow is gonna time out before your AAA game even finishes downloading the shader cache. Meanwhile, DOOM is probably already running on your CI/CD pipeline's error logs.

The AUDACITY of JavaScript haters when Lua developers are RIGHT THERE! 😱 Lua devs sitting in the corner with their 1-indexed arrays and "nil" instead of null, nervously sweating and praying nobody notices their quirks while everyone's busy roasting JavaScript. It's like watching someone get away with murder while the cops are distracted by a jaywalker. The side-eye is INTENSE because honey, when your language is primarily known for Roblox and WoW addons, maybe don't throw stones from your glass gaming engine!

Behold the raw power of NVIDIA's budget GPU! Someone's trying to run Papa's Bakeria (a simple 2D cooking game) with an RTX 5050, and it's struggling at a magnificent 18 FPS . That's right—a next-gen graphics card getting absolutely destroyed by... cake decorating. The poor thing is paired with an i5-10400F and has 8GB VRAM, but clearly that's not enough horsepower to handle the intense physics of virtual frosting. Gaming PC builders spending $300+ on a GPU to achieve PowerPoint-level framerates in a browser game is peak silicon tragedy.

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute BETRAYAL of discovering YOU are the villain in your own codebase! 😱 There you are, hunting down the monster who wrote that spaghetti nightmare from 2019, ready to unleash your righteous fury—only to find your own digital fingerprints all over it! The way Kratos says "There is no forgiving you" is LITERALLY me staring at my past self's variable names like "temp1," "temp2," and the classic "idk_why_this_works_dont_touch." The AUDACITY of past me to leave such horrors for future me to deal with! The circle of technical debt is complete, and I am both the hunter AND the hunted!

The same energy that powers our debugging sessions at 3 AM fuels our Steam sale vigilance. Staring at that $70 game with the intensity of a thousand suns, checking price trackers daily, setting up alerts, all to save $55 that we'll immediately spend on four other games we'll never play. The sweet victory of getting that AAA title for the price of a sandwich... only to let it rot in our library alongside 200 other "great deals." Financial optimization at its finest – just don't calculate the hourly rate of your price-watching efforts.

Ah, nothing says "I was definitely sober and making good decisions" like nesting 6 for-loops into oblivion. This masterpiece of indentation is what happens when caffeine replaces blood in your circulatory system at 2AM. That beautiful staircase of closing brackets is basically the developer's version of those Russian nesting dolls, except each one contains a slightly more confused version of yourself. The best part? That O(n⁶) time complexity is going to run so slowly that you'll have time to rethink your entire career before it finishes executing. It's not a bug, it's a built-in meditation feature!
