My Bathroom Tiles Remind Me Of My Dwindling Commit Frequency

Opening that GitHub repo after half a year feels like deep-sea archaeology. The code is some ancient artifact, buried under 3775.6 meters of mental context you've completely forgotten. You stare at your own comments thinking "What kind of sleep-deprived maniac wrote this?" before realizing it was you, at 2AM, fueled by energy drinks and misplaced confidence. The worst part? That brilliant architecture you were so proud of now looks like someone let a neural network write code after training it exclusively on Stack Overflow answers from 2011.

OH MY GOD! 😱 Someone just committed a file called "Simplify SECURITY.md" to the repo! That's like putting up a neon sign saying "HACKERS WELCOME!" 🚪🔓 When your coworker casually pushes "simplify security" to production, every sysadmin in a 10-mile radius gets heart palpitations! Next commit: "passwords.txt - just made it easier to remember guys!" 💀 Security teams everywhere are screaming internally right now. "Simplify security" is just corporate speak for "I disabled all the firewalls because they were slowing down my downloads." 🔥

The Terminator's code review process is brutally efficient. Junior dev thinks creating a PR means they're done, but they've forgotten the most important part—getting their Tech Lead's approval. And just like the Terminator's cold delivery of bad news, there's no sugar-coating it when your TL has abandoned the project, gone on vacation, or worse... left for another company. Now your code is stuck in PR purgatory, neither alive nor dead, just waiting... forever.

Why learn Git commands when you can just keep failing until Git tells you exactly what to type? The classic "reject, read error, copy-paste solution" workflow that's gotten us through countless pushes. Sure, I could memorize --set-upstream , but why bother when Git's error messages are basically Stack Overflow with better response times? It's not laziness, it's efficiency!

Ah, the sacred GitHub contribution graph—where the greenness of your squares matters more than your actual skills! This marketing person just proved that tech hiring is basically a casino where the house edge is "having a pretty heat map." Forget degrees, experience, or actual coding ability—just make sure your contribution graph looks like a well-maintained lawn. $900k for a pretty pattern of green squares? Meanwhile, actual developers are frantically pushing commits to empty repos at 11:59 PM just to keep their streaks alive. The ultimate tech industry cheat code: don't learn to code, just learn to look like you code. Absolutely brilliant.

The eternal duality of developer urgency! Your product manager frantically messages: "Need this PR merged ASAP!!!" But what they don't realize is you've mastered the art of interpreting "ASAP" as "As Slow As Possible." Like Skeletor here, you'll confidently declare your alternative interpretation before quietly slipping away into the shadows. That urgent feature request? It'll be ready when it's ready... which coincidentally aligns perfectly with your existing plans to refactor that completely unrelated module first. The best part? When they finally catch up with you three sprints later, you can just blame it on "unexpected technical complexities" and "proper testing protocols." Checkmate, management.
