When You Must Explain Your Own Code

Ah, the sweet release of framework fatigue! That moment when you've been drowning in an endless sea of JavaScript frameworks—React today, Vue tomorrow, Svelte next week—and finally say "nope, I'm done." The spiritual rebirth of crawling back to jQuery feels like emerging from a baptismal pool of complexity. No more dependency hell, no more webpack config nightmares, just good ol' $('.selector').doStuff() and suddenly you're sleeping like a baby again. Framework FOMO? Cured! Who needs 17MB of node_modules when you can have a single 30KB file that just works? It's like trading in your experimental rocket ship for a reliable bicycle—sure it's not as flashy, but you'll actually reach your destination without exploding!

Ah, the classic "unpaid intern" bait-and-switch! Nothing says "we value your skills" quite like demanding 4+ years of React.js experience for an unpaid internship. The audacity of requiring 3+ years of front-end engineering AND React Native experience for someone who won't even get paid is just *chef's kiss* corporate delusion at its finest. Translation: "We want a senior developer willing to work for exposure and the vague possibility of maybe getting paid someday." Next they'll be asking for your kidney as a signing bonus.

The classic tech recruiter bait-and-switch in its natural habitat! First they post for a fullstack React dev, then suddenly it's a desktop app, then just frontend, and finally—surprise!—they want a React Native mobile expert. And companies wonder why they can't find "qualified" candidates when they're playing job description roulette. It's like ordering a pizza and getting mad when the sushi chef can't make you tacos.

The eternal JavaScript type coercion strikes again! In the first panel, someone proudly declares JavaScript as their favorite language. But the punchline reveals why developers have a love-hate relationship with it—when you add 1 to the string "11", JavaScript helpfully concatenates them into "111" instead of doing math. Yet when you subtract 1 from "11", it suddenly decides to convert the string to a number and returns 10. This inconsistent type handling is why senior devs develop eye twitches whenever someone mentions JavaScript. It's like having a calculator that sometimes decides to spell out numbers in interpretive dance.

Frontend developers just collectively shuddered at this monstrosity. That circular screen is basically saying "Have fun making your responsive designs work on THIS, suckers!" It's like someone looked at the rectangular screens we've been optimizing for decades and thought, "You know what would be fun? Geometry warfare!" Imagine the CSS nightmares. Your perfectly crafted grid layout? Dead. Your meticulously positioned elements? Homeless. Your sanity? Gone. The corners don't even exist anymore! Where do notifications go? Into the void, apparently. The person asking for ONE reason not to buy it clearly hasn't spent hours debugging why their div is 1px off. Meanwhile, frontend devs are already updating their resumes with "survived circular viewport trauma" as a skill.

OMG, the TRAGEDY of dating a programmer! While she's over there having a full-blown relationship crisis, this man's brain is LITERALLY SHORT-CIRCUITING over why arrays start at zero instead of one! THE AUDACITY! 💀 His girlfriend thinks he's mentally cheating, but he's just mentally debugging the universe's indexing choices. The relationship is in shambles while he's contemplating the existential horror of zero-based indexing. PRIORITIES, PEOPLE!
