Create Your Own Git For Mother's Day

The ABSOLUTE PEAK of solo developer dignity! 💅 Creating a pull request on your own repository and then dramatically switching hats to approve it yourself is the coding equivalent of giving yourself a medal! It's that special moment when you pretend there's an actual code review happening, but it's just you having a conversation with yourself like some kind of Git schizophrenia. "Hmm, this code looks FABULOUS, darling! Who wrote it? Oh wait—IT WAS ME!" The ceremonial self-merge: simultaneously the most pathetic and most empowering ritual in solo development history!

Ah, the unholy trinity of developer nightmares presented as dark magic symbols! These three commands represent career-ending mistakes that haunt the dreams of tech professionals: DROP DATABASE - The database equivalent of a tactical nuke. One second your data exists, the next second your resume is being updated. rm -rf /* - The Linux command that says "I'd like everything on this system deleted, please and thank you." Hope you enjoyed having files! git push --force - The team collaboration destroyer. Nothing says "my code is more important than everyone else's work" quite like overwriting the shared repository history. Execute any of these in production without a backup, and you might as well start practicing the phrase "Would you like fries with that?"

The cosmic horror of being assigned as a code reviewer for a 208-file pull request with +114,948 lines added and -1,130 lines removed. The giant, menacing figure represents the monstrous PR towering over the poor developer who's been summoned to review this abomination. That's not a codebase change—that's a whole new dimension of pain being introduced into your repository! The "And It Is Only Monday" title perfectly captures that sinking feeling when your week starts with what can only be described as a code war crime. Whoever submitted this PR clearly doesn't believe in atomic commits or the concept of human mercy.

The secret sauce of looking like you know what you're doing in tech isn't the code—it's the performance art. Turn a monitor vertical, squint thoughtfully at some blue-themed IDE while occasionally muttering "scope issue" or "need to commit these changes," and suddenly you're the office wizard. The best part? The more confused you actually are, the more convincingly profound you appear. Seven years as a lead developer and I still do this during standup when I haven't made any progress since yesterday.

That moment when your coworker submits a pull request with 10,000 lines of code and you just approve it without even looking at it. "LGTM" (Looks Good To Me) is the digital equivalent of "yeah whatever, ship it" while leaning back in your chair with zero accountability. The best part? You'll be on vacation when it inevitably breaks production next week.

Junior devs with unrestricted server access and zero version control knowledge are basically walking disasters with commit privileges. It's like handing a toddler a flamethrower and saying "try not to burn down the data center!" Their confidence is inversely proportional to their Git knowledge, making them the most dangerous entities in the tech ecosystem. One wrong move and suddenly production is running on a single file called "final_version_ACTUALLY_FINAL_v2_USE_THIS_ONE.js"
