Everyone Told Java Not To Script

The ultimate dad joke of programming languages! Despite sharing zero DNA with Java, JavaScript was named purely for marketing hype in the 90s. It's like naming your hamster "Tiger" because it sounds cooler. The sinister grin in the image perfectly captures Netscape's devious marketing team knowing they were about to confuse generations of developers with this naming atrocity. The relationship between Java and JavaScript is basically the same as car and carpet – superficially similar words describing completely unrelated things. Yet here we are, 25+ years later, still explaining to non-programmers that no, we can't fix their Java problem with our JavaScript skills.

Inline CSS With Extra Steps

The Twitter bird (or any blue bird, really) first rejects Tailwind CSS with disgust, only to later vomit it back up after reluctantly consuming it. It's the classic frontend dev journey: "Utility classes?! That's just inline CSS with extra steps! I'm a proper developer who writes clean, semantic CSS!" *5 minutes of trying to maintain a massive CSS codebase later* "OH GOD GIVE ME THE UTILITY CLASSES PLEASE I'LL DO ANYTHING!" We've all been there. First you mock it, then you try it, then you can't live without it. The circle of CSS frameworks.
