You Guys Are Paying For Git?

When your dating life and Git workflow become one and the same. First guy found a partner who can actually commit (unlike most of his ex-branches), then the reply takes it to the next level with "glad you two merged" - because why have separate repositories when you can join forces? The "I'll see myself out" is the perfect git push after dropping that pun. Finding love in the comments section of a bug report might be the most developer thing ever. Still better than meeting on Stack Overflow where they'd close your dating profile as "duplicate" or "too broad."

Remember when code reviews meant finding your coworker's spaghetti logic and passive-aggressive variable names? Now it's just you, questioning your existence while scrutinizing AI-generated code that's somehow both flawless and completely nonsensical. The modern code reviewer: frantically Googling obscure algorithms at 2 AM because you can't tell if GitHub Copilot is brilliant or hallucinating. "Is this O(log n) solution actually genius or am I being gaslit by a language model that learned to code from Stack Overflow?" Nothing grinds your gears quite like spending your precious human life debugging code written by a machine that doesn't even get tired or need coffee breaks.

The dark satisfaction of Windows developers inserting carriage return line feed (CRLF) into every merged file is perfectly captured here. While Unix-based systems use just LF (\n) for line endings, Windows insists on CRLF (\r\n) and will fight to the death for those extra bytes. Nothing like breaking git diffs and causing merge conflicts across operating systems because Windows decided in 1981 that mimicking typewriters was the future of computing. The smug expression says it all - "Yes, I've ruined your clean line endings, and I'd do it again."

Ah, the sacred text of professional groveling. This is the comprehensive collection of phrases every developer keeps in a text file for when they realize they've been arguing about a bug for 45 minutes only to discover they forgot a semicolon. These aren't just apologies—they're survival tools. Copy-paste these into Slack after your senior dev points out you've been using the wrong API endpoint for three weeks and watch as your performance review magically improves from "concerning" to "shows potential." The best part? After 10 years in the industry, you'll develop the ability to sound genuinely contrite while simultaneously rolling your eyes so hard you can see your own brain.

That magical moment in code review when your team is staring at a production bug and someone asks who wrote this disaster. Just agree with whatever they say! "You're absolutely right" is dev-speak for "I wrote it but I'm not admitting it in front of witnesses." Nothing clears a room faster than taking responsibility for that recursive function that's been crashing the server every Tuesday at 3 AM.

When a tech CEO meets an open source developer who's about to reveal how their company's "revolutionary proprietary algorithm" is actually just forked from a GitHub repo with zero attribution. The hand gesture isn't saying "stop"—it's frantically trying to pause the conversation before the entire board meeting discovers their $50M valuation is built on npm install and Stack Overflow copypasta.
