Be Very Afraid Of Git

The eternal developer insecurity captured in one GitHub diff stat. Adding nearly 5,000 lines while removing 1,144 and still wondering if your PR is substantial enough. Meanwhile, your code reviewer is silently praying you didn't just paste an entire npm package into the codebase. The green bars say "impressive contribution" but your brain says "what if it's mostly comments and whitespace?" Classic impostor syndrome with a side of version control anxiety.

Regular people worry about ignoring texts and relationships. Developers just want to know which files to add to .gitignore so their repo doesn't get cluttered with garbage. The sweet relief on that dev's face when he discovers he can ignore node_modules instead of pushing 500MB of dependencies to GitHub. Pure bliss. Meanwhile, his relationship status remains "it's complicated with package-lock.json."

THE ABSOLUTE TRAGEDY of developer life! 💀 Your code graveyard is SCREAMING with abandoned projects while your brain, that TREACHEROUS VILLAIN, convinces you that starting a shiny new project is the answer to all life's problems! Meanwhile, your GitHub is a CEMETERY of half-implemented features and READMEs that end mid-sentence. But sure, honey, THIS time you'll definitely finish that revolutionary app that combines blockchain, AI, and a toaster API. SUUUURE YOU WILL.

Finally, someone brave enough to decode the cryptic art of version numbering! The major version gets bumped when you're feeling particularly smug about your code. The minor version? That's just for the mundane Tuesday releases. But that patch number? That's where the bodies are buried—all those emergency fixes for bugs you swore didn't exist during code review. "No no, that 123 isn't a frantic weekend of hotfixes... it's a feature richness indicator ." Sure, buddy. We all know the truth behind those triple-digit patches. It's basically a shame counter.

Oh, the BETRAYAL! There I was, battling code demons for HOURS, sweating through trial and error like I'm diffusing a nuclear bomb, only to finally surrender and open the README—which OBVIOUSLY contained the solution in the first paragraph all along! The sheer AUDACITY of documentation to be useful AFTER I've sacrificed my sanity! Next time I'll just dramatically stare at the README first with the same dead-inside expression instead of pretending I'm too good for instructions. My kingdom for reading documentation BEFORE writing 47 Stack Overflow questions!

When your GitHub repo name creates a comedy goldmine without even trying. This developer's project "ANUS" has spawned the most gloriously inappropriate issue titles in open source history. "ANUS is too tight, needs LUBE" and "Add penetration tests" aren't bugs—they're features of accidental innuendo. The best part? These are legitimate technical requests with completely innocent intentions that sound absolutely filthy out of context. Naming your repo is truly the most consequential decision a developer will ever make.
