Git Blame Someone Else

The year is 2025. Microsoft has fully absorbed GitHub, and the dystopian nightmare begins. GitHub users cower in fear as Microsoft whispers "Come closer..." only to drop the bombshell: "I NEED YOU TO ADD IPV6 SUPPORT TO GITHUB." It's the ultimate plot twist! After all the fears of Microsoft injecting telemetry, ads, or subscription tiers into GitHub, they're just desperately trying to drag their acquisition into modern networking standards. Still running on legacy IPv4 in 2025? That's the real horror story! The internet ran out of IPv4 addresses years ago, but GitHub's still clinging to them like SpongeBob to his spatula.

When your entire career revolves around version control but you can't control your dad jokes. The classic naming convention gone wrong—kid's not a branch you can just merge later! Somewhere in the world, there's a developer named "Commit" whose dad thought he was being clever. The real tragedy? That kid probably grew up to use Mercurial instead.

The graph that exposes our dirty little secret. Nothing says "I trust this code completely" like scrolling at Mach 10 through a 10,000-line PR while muttering "yeah, seems fine" under your breath. The curve shoots up exponentially because we all know the unspoken rule: the longer the PR, the less anyone actually reads it. By line 5,000, you're basically just admiring how pretty the syntax highlighting looks while hitting that approve button. For bonus points, drop an "LGTM" comment to prove you definitely, absolutely, 100% read every single line. Trust me, your future self debugging production at 3 AM will be so grateful.

The harsh reality of Git commands visualized with brutal accuracy. Landing a plane? That's your git commit - looks smooth but you're still touching ground. Taking off with git push ? Sure, your code's airborne but there's always turbulence ahead in production. And then there's git add - literally passengers climbing stairs to nowhere in the middle of a desert. That's what happens when you stage files without knowing what the hell you're actually including. Seven years as a lead and I still catch juniors blindly adding everything with git add . and wondering why their API keys ended up on GitHub.

That moment of existential dread when a coworker checks out your Git branch and sees the unholy abomination of code you've been working on. Suddenly all your variable names like final_final_v2_WORKS and those 47 commented-out debugging console.log() statements are on full display. Your commit messages reading "fix stuff" and "please work" aren't helping your case either. The digital equivalent of someone walking into your house while it's an absolute disaster.

The AUDACITY of Monday merges! First you're all confident, strutting around like you're God's gift to version control with your git commit -m "feature done mf" . Then BOOM! Reality slaps you in the face—87 DIFFERENT COMMITS between your branch and production?! THE HORROR! You desperately try git pull --rebase like it's some magical incantation that will save your pathetic developer soul. Those moments of sheer panic as Git does its thing... will your code survive this unholy ritual?! And then—SWEET MERCIFUL BYTES—it actually works! That relief when Git tells you it's successful is better than any drug known to mankind. You've survived another Monday merge. At least until next week, you beautiful disaster.
