When Formatting Gives You Depression

You know what's worse than actual depression? Opening someone's code and discovering they've never heard of the spacebar. Every bracket is a crime scene, the indentation is playing hide and seek, and the ternary operator looks like it's having an existential crisis. That recursive permutation function is already hard enough to parse mentally without the formatting making it look like someone sneezed on the keyboard. Your friend really said "here's my Java code" like they're proud of this chaotic masterpiece. The real depression isn't the sad aesthetic photo—it's realizing you have to refactor this before you can even BEGIN to understand what it does. Time to introduce them to Prettier or an IDE that actually cares about their mental health.
