The GitHub portfolio paradox strikes again! What you're seeing is the classic "my GitHub is a disaster" syndrome where developers claim their repos showcase their skills, but the reality is a collection of bizarre, half-finished experiments that make absolutely no sense to anyone else. Those planes are the perfect metaphor - technically they're all aircraft, but some are missing wings, others are just engines, and one appears to be defying the laws of physics entirely. It's like having 47 repos with names like "test-thing2" and "new-project-FINAL-ACTUALLY-FINAL-v3" with exactly one commit from 2019.

The neural pathways of a developer's brain have evolved to interpret everything through code-colored glasses. When normal humans hear "Let's create a game together," they think of flirting. Meanwhile, the developer's brain short-circuits and immediately jumps to "Unity or Unreal Engine? I'll set up the Git repo tonight!" No wonder dating profiles don't have a field for preferred programming language - it would be the only thing we'd fill out properly.

Behold the future of coding: a three-button keyboard that distills programming to its purest form—Copy, Paste, and a logo that's probably GitHub or StackOverflow. The hardware manufacturers finally figured out what we actually do all day! Why write original code when someone on the internet already solved your problem? The "expert" part is knowing exactly which code to steal and how to make it look like you understood it in your commit messages. Future job interviews: "How efficiently can you Google?"

So your teammate just pushed a week's worth of changes to the parent branch while you've been happily rebasing your feature branch for the past eight hours. Eight. Hours. That's basically a full workday of carefully resolving conflicts, rewriting commit history, and praying to the git gods that you don't accidentally nuke something important. Now all that work? Completely obsolete. You get to do it all over again because their changes are now in the base branch, which means fresh new merge conflicts are waiting for you like a surprise birthday party you never wanted. The rage is palpable, the suffering is real, and somewhere in the distance, your teammate is probably eating lunch without a care in the world. Pro tip: Always check if anyone's about to merge before starting a marathon rebase session. Or just use merge commits like a sane person. But where's the fun in that?

OH MY STARS AND GARTERS! The absolute AUDACITY of pushing untested code to dev at 4:59 PM on a Friday! 💅✨ It's the classic "not my problem until Monday" energy that only the most chaotic developers possess. Like, honey, you're literally creating a weekend emergency while dancing on the grave of your team's sanity! That code is going to break SPECTACULARLY while you're sipping margaritas, and some poor on-call dev will be crying into their keyboard. ICONIC BEHAVIOR. 👑

Top panel: Blissful ignorance. You commit your code thinking you've solved everything. Middle panel: Reality check begins. QA finds those edge cases you conveniently forgot existed. Bottom panel: Full existential dread. DevOps messages you at 2AM about the production server that's now somehow mining cryptocurrency in Paraguay. The three stages of deployment grief. No developer has ever experienced the mythical fourth panel: "Everything worked perfectly."
