Thank Him For That

DARLING, SWEETIE, HONEY! A new JavaScript framework just launched? How utterly GROUNDBREAKING! 🙄 The JavaScript ecosystem is LITERALLY DROWNING in frameworks that pop up faster than mushrooms after rain! That poor glowing skeleton is all of us - absolutely DEVASTATED by the sheer AUDACITY of yet another framework claiming to revolutionize web development. The skeleton's response is pure GOLD: "Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?" Because HONESTLY, at this point announcing you're a new JS framework is like announcing you're wearing socks. Nobody. Is. Impressed.

The giant Shiba Inu (JSON) looms over two tiny toy dogs labeled "backend" and "frontend" – perfectly capturing how JSON acts as the universal translator between these two worlds. Backend devs toss data over the wall, frontend devs parse it, and somehow this glorified string format keeps the entire internet from collapsing. The best part? Neither side fully trusts what the other is sending, so they're both constantly validating like paranoid security guards. Yet we all pretend it's totally normal to encode our precious application data as essentially fancy text messages.

The eternal programmer delusion, laid bare in four panels of crushing reality. Society thinks we're hardware wizards, surgically repairing computers with screwdrivers like some kind of digital mechanic. Our parents believe we're rocket scientists in lab coats, probably inventing the next Facebook-killer between family dinners. Meanwhile, our self-image is that of a beautiful mind—equations floating around our heads as we solve impossibly complex algorithms. The devastating truth? We're just frantically Googling "How to use dates in JavaScript" for the fifth time this week because nobody—NOBODY—can remember how that cursed Date object works. The duality of programmer existence: cosmic genius in our minds, desperate Googler in reality.

The crushing realization that the web isn't powered by mystical forces but rather by a horrifying patchwork of JavaScript frameworks, browser quirks, and legacy code held together with duct tape and prayers. The transition from "this must be magic" to "dear god, it's all just if-statements in a trench coat" is enough to make anyone shed a single dramatic tear.
