When Your Game Logic Handles Your Social Calendar

The code is a perfect example of why game developers shouldn't be allowed near RNGs unsupervised! 😂 What we're looking at is a glorious mess of Python where someone created two nearly identical functions ( count_greater_than_11 and count_greater_than_5 ) that generate random numbers between 1-20 and increment a counter when the number exceeds a threshold. But wait! The function names and comments don't even match - one says "greater than 11" in the comment but checks for > 10 in the code, while the other claims to check for > 5 but actually checks for > 4! And then there's that lonely is_divisible_by_7 function at the bottom, just hanging out with no apparent connection to anything else. It's like someone started implementing their own version of RNG bias with specific magic numbers, got bored halfway through, and shipped it anyway. This is probably why that boss battle feels unfairly difficult every 7th attempt...

That rare, glorious moment when you spend 16 hours debugging your game only to discover the engine itself is broken. It's like finding out you've been arguing with a brick wall that was actually designed to be wrong. The sheer existential crisis of a game developer realizing they've been gaslighted by their own tools. "Wait, so I don't suck at programming?" Revolutionary concept. Almost makes you want to frame the bug report and hang it on your wall as proof that sometimes—just sometimes—the universe acknowledges your competence.

The programmer community's version of relationship advice is about as reliable as a Windows ME machine connected to public WiFi. That "hide your $3000 GPU from your wife" joke might get you upvotes, but it's the same energy as keeping production secrets in plaintext. Healthy relationships don't need version control to hide your commit history. Meanwhile, the single devs nodding along are the same ones who think they can fix merge conflicts by ignoring them. Trust me, after 15 years in tech, the only thing that should be hidden is your terrible code, not your hobbies.

The flowchart of gamer desperation! This masterpiece maps out every possible financial scenario that inevitably leads to buying games on Steam. Broke? No job? No possessions? No problem! The algorithm always terminates at "BUY" because let's face it, your financial responsibility routine has more edge cases than a poorly written regex. My favorite path is the "BLASPHEMY" route – because nothing says "I'm a responsible adult" like cursing the capitalist system while simultaneously emptying your wallet during the Summer Sale. And if you've reached the "Do you have a soul?" decision node, you're already too far gone. Just accept your fate and prepare for your bank account to hit that recursion base case: zero.

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute CHAOS of game development file management! 💀 Game devs out here playing Russian roulette with their save directories! On the left, the poor dev desperately reaching for that elusive Windows save directory. Meanwhile on the right, the HORRIFYING reality of where game files ACTUALLY end up - scattered across seventeen billion different folders like the aftermath of a digital tornado! AppData(Local)? AppData(Roaming)? Documents/My Games? User folder? programfiles? It's like the file system threw up after a wild party and nobody bothered to clean up! And don't even get me started on those mysterious "Game Folder" directories that could literally be ANYWHERE on your machine! The struggle is REAL and the pain is ETERNAL. Send help. Or better yet, send a standardized file structure! 😭

The ancient GPU giving a thumbs up like "I'm not dead yet, suckers!" Nothing says tech necromancy like slathering fresh thermal paste on a graphics card old enough to vote. That GPU has survived four U.S. presidencies and still runs Garry's Mod without breaking a sweat. Meanwhile, it's googling "lossless scaling" like an elderly person discovering TikTok for the first time. "What's this newfangled technology? Back in my day, we rendered at native resolution and LIKED IT!"
