The Git Baptism By Fire

OH. MY. GOD. You thought submitting your PR was the hard part? SWEETIE, NO! 💅 Your code is about to face the FIRING SQUAD of senior developers who've been WAITING ALL DAY to tell you that your variable names are "problematic" and your indentation is a "crime against humanity." That shotgun isn't for show, honey! Your beautiful 3 AM code baby is about to be DISSECTED like a frog in biology class, except the frog is your self-esteem and the scalpel is Chad from Backend who "doesn't understand why anyone would implement it this way." Prepare for comments so passive-aggressive they could power a small nation!

The AUDACITY of this person saving code in Google Drive! The horror! The SCANDAL! 😱 Meanwhile, the rest of us sophisticated developers are just casually letting our precious code snippets evaporate into the digital void when our ChatGPT conversations expire. Who needs version control when you can frantically scroll through chat history trying to find that one perfect function you wrote three weeks ago? It's like playing archaeological roulette with your career! But hey, at least we're not using—*gasp*—GOOGLE DRIVE like some kind of ORGANIZED PERSON!

Nothing strikes fear into a developer's heart quite like asking colleagues to review code. The bear in this meme represents that senior dev who's been "too busy" to look at your PR for two weeks straight. The title "LGTM" (Looks Good To Me) is the holy grail response we all want but rarely get without 47 nitpicky comments about your variable naming conventions. The survival strategy works both in forests and open office plans - just ask someone who wants to avoid you to do something for you, and watch them magically disappear faster than documentation during a deadline crunch.

The eternal cycle of developer enthusiasm. Top frame: joyfully playing with the shiny new project while completely ignoring last week's project drowning right next to you. Bottom frame: your GitHub graveyard—a haunting underwater boneyard of abandoned repositories that will never see a commit again. The real horror isn't the code quality; it's the commitment issues.

Ah, the classic bait-and-switch of programming education! Kids think they're entering a magical world of creativity with drag-and-drop blocks and cute animations, only to discover their future involves staring at terminal windows for hours debugging merge conflicts. It's like expecting to become a chef by playing cooking games, then discovering real kitchens involve mostly dishwashing and knife sharpening. The gap between Scratch/educational programming and "rm -rf node_modules && npm install" is the greatest plot twist in tech careers.

Blind as a bat when reviewing your own code, but suddenly equipped with NASA-grade telescope vision when it's someone else's mess. Nothing quite like the supernatural ability to spot every single anti-pattern, security vulnerability, and poorly named variable in code you didn't write, while your own masterpiece—complete with commented-out debug statements from 2019 and that one function named temp_fix_delete_later_v4 —somehow looks flawless. The real code review superpower isn't finding bugs, it's the selective blindness we develop for our own crimes against computing.
