The Parentheses Paradox

javascript-memes, syntax-memes, arrow-functions-memes, code-confusion-memes, parentheses-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

Looking at ( ( ) ) => { } ) ( ) ; and wondering how it works is like staring into the abyss of JavaScript's syntax flexibility. It's just nested parentheses, curly braces, and arrows having an existential crisis together. After 15 years of development, I still get cold sweats when I see code like this in production. Somewhere, a senior dev is nodding knowingly while secretly Googling "what does extra parenthesis in arrow function do" in an incognito tab.

Throw It For The 2026

Someone asked for the worst tech advice and honestly, this is peak developer wisdom right here. Just wrap everything in a try-catch block and throw it into the void. Error handling? Never heard of her. Stack traces? Who needs 'em when you can just silently fail and pretend nothing happened. This is basically the programming equivalent of sweeping dirt under the rug and calling it cleaning. Your app crashes? Try-catch. Database connection fails? Try-catch. Existential crisis at 2 AM? Believe it or not, also try-catch. The catch block stays empty though—because acknowledging problems is for people who have time for proper error handling. Production bugs will love you for this approach. Future you will definitely not be cursing past you while debugging why the application just... stops working with zero logs or error messages. Ship it!

Try-Catch Block Party

Squidward peering through the blinds at the try-catch block party happening without him is pure error handling poetry. Your code's over there having the time of its life with exception handling while you're just staring at it, wondering why you wrote it that way in the first place. The exception gets to have all the fun while you're left debugging why your error message is "undefined" for the fifth time today. Classic case of the error knowing more about your code than you do.
