In Git We Trust

The sacred rule of Git: force pushing is like playing with explosives. On your own feature branch? Sure, blow it up, it's your mess to clean. But on master? You've just committed the cardinal sin of version control. That -f flag might as well stand for "future regret" when you obliterate everyone else's work with your divine intervention. Nothing says "I'm the captain now" quite like rewriting shared history without consent. Pro tip: Want to make enemies at work? Force push to master on Friday at 4:55 PM and turn off Slack notifications.

Ah, the glorious transformation that happens when your pull request finally gets merged! You start as a nervous junior dev in a plain suit, questioning your life choices and code quality. Then BAM—suddenly you're royalty, adorned with medals of honor and sitting on the throne of Git superiority. The best part? That awkward moment when you submit a PR at 11:59 PM with 17 commented-out debug statements and a commit message that just says "fix stuff" – and somehow it still gets approved. Instant transformation from peasant to king of the codebase! And yes, all my repos are public too... which means everyone can witness both my moments of coding brilliance and the absolute dumpster fires I create before the PR gets polished. It's like having your teenage photos permanently displayed in Times Square.

Ah yes, the peak of developer romance - naming a Git branch after your crush. While musicians get to immortalize their muses in heartfelt ballads, we programmers are stuck with feature/sarah-reminded-me-to-fix-this-bug . Nothing says "I'm thinking about you" quite like burying someone's name in a temporary code branch that'll be merged and forgotten faster than that relationship will last. The true poetry of our time is clearly found in pull request comments.

Oh nooo! The ghost keeps saying "Boo" but the stick figure isn't scared... until they reveal their true horror - using zip files for version control! 😱 You know you've reached peak coding chaos when your version control system is just a folder of proj_1.zip , proj_2.zip , and the dreaded proj_last.zip ! The ghost couldn't scare them, but their file management made every developer scream in terror! Git commit or get haunted by your own file system!

When marketing emails try to hijack developer lingo... Pandora really thought they could trick us with "Create your own git for Mother's Day" instead of just saying "gift." Nice try, Pandora, but the only repositories I'm creating are for code, not jewelry. And that unsubscribe button is looking mighty tempting after this git commit to marketing failure.

Terry, the mythical unicorn of development. Spends two decades crafting his own OS (because apparently existing ones weren't painful enough), yet somehow manages to write commit messages that don't read like encrypted ransom notes. Meanwhile, the rest of us are over here with our "fixed stuff" and "updated things" commits, wondering if we should just give up and become goat farmers.
