Start The Suffering Early

Oh. My. God. The TRAUMA of JavaScript's type coercion bringing a grown developer to tears! 😭 The absolute HORROR of "10"-1 = 9 because JavaScript just decides strings with numbers should be numbers when it feels like it! The AUDACITY! And then TypeScript swoops in like the helicopter parent we never knew we needed, wrapping us in a warm blanket of strict typing and whispering "there, there, I won't let the bad implicit conversions hurt you anymore." DRAMATIC RESCUE COMPLETE! 💅

First frame: "Don't shoot! I am JS Developer" with hands up desperately trying to save himself. Second frame: "Explain promises" Third frame: "Shoot" The eternal struggle of JavaScript developers when cornered about explaining async concepts. Sure, they can write promises all day long, but ask them to actually explain how the hell that callback-escaping magic works under the hood, and suddenly taking a bullet seems like the easier option. The callback hell they were trying to escape just became an interrogation hell instead.

When your code says "Error on line 265" but line 265 is just a single curly brace. The absolute betrayal! That innocent little "}" sitting there, taking the blame for someone else's crimes. Meanwhile, the REAL culprit is probably a missing semicolon from 200 lines ago that's been silently plotting your downfall since coffee break. JavaScript's idea of a practical joke is to make debugging feel like trying to find a ninja in a dark room.

When someone drops the bombshell that your precious native apps are essentially just fancy wrappers for web content, your entire developer identity crumbles. The existential crisis hits hard enough to require a bottle of whiskey and some serious soul-searching. It's that moment of horrific clarity when you realize you've spent years arguing about native vs web while Electron apps quietly took over the world. And deep down you know... it's all just HTTP requests with prettier buttons.

That moment when you innocently order Nan bread and trigger a programmer's existential crisis. In JavaScript and many other languages, NaN stands for "Not a Number" - it's literally impossible to serve. The waiter's face is the universal debug expression we all make when someone asks us to handle undefined behavior. Just another day of type errors spilling into the real world.
