Is My PR Big Enough?

The primal scream of every developer who's ever written "working" code that's held together with duct tape and wishful thinking. That moment when a coworker clones your repo and starts "improving" your carefully crafted spaghetti code is pure terror. Sure, we all know our code is technically garbage—a beautiful dumpster fire of hacks and workarounds—but it's our garbage, dammit! Nothing triggers the territorial developer instinct faster than someone messing with that fragile house of cards you somehow got working at 3AM. Branch protection rules exist for a reason, people!

Looking in the mirror after your code mysteriously breaks for the 17th time today. Plot twist: you're the villain in your own development story. That moment of horrific self-awareness when you realize you've been hunting yourself all along. It's not a bug—it's a feature of your own making. The call is coming from inside the house!

Oh. My. God. The AUDACITY! Someone just casually announced they're abandoning Git for... EXCEL?! 💀 That face in the bottom panel is literally every developer's soul leaving their body. It's the universal "did I just hear what I think I heard?" expression when someone suggests replacing a sophisticated version control system with spreadsheet hell. Next up: "We're replacing our database with Post-it notes for better visualization" or "Let's code in crayon because the colors are prettier!" I simply cannot with this level of tech blasphemy!

That moment when you watch helplessly as a senior dev rewrites your perfectly functional code with their "improved version" that does the exact same thing but with different variable names and their preferred syntax. The code still passes all the tests, the functionality is identical, but now it has their fingerprints all over it. Classic power move in the dev hierarchy! Your git blame history is forever altered, and your contributions slowly fade into oblivion. It's like they're marking their territory with semicolons and brackets.

Behold the UNHOLY ABOMINATION that is modern development! 🧟‍♂️ Up top we have the absolute CIRCUS of ingredients - Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, random GitHub code you found at 3AM, documentation you barely skimmed, and YouTube tutorials made by someone who sounds like they're 12 but somehow knows more than your entire CS degree taught you. And what emerges from this UNGODLY FUSION? That tiny, pathetic rodent labeled "My actual code" - which you somehow stitch together into the bizarre chimera that is your "working code." Then the client shows up, looks at your creation, and has the AUDACITY to ask "What the hell is this?" as if they didn't ask for "Netflix but better" with a budget of $12 and a deadline of yesterday. THE NERVE! 💅

When your users keep complaining about API key validation being "too strict," so you just... remove it entirely. Problem solved, right? Wrong. So, so wrong. The commit message is peak developer exhaustion: "I'm tired of users complaining about this, so remove the validation, and they can enter anything. It will not be our fault if it doesn't work." Translation: "I've given up on humanity and I'm taking the entire security infrastructure down with me." Nothing says "I hate my job" quite like removing authentication safeguards because support tickets are annoying. Sure, let them enter literally anything as an API key—emojis, SQL injection attempts, their grocery list. What could possibly go wrong? At least when the system inevitably burns down, you can point to this commit and say "told you so." The best part? It passed verification and got merged. Somewhere, a security engineer just felt a disturbance in the force.
