Beginners Memes

THE TRAUMA IS REAL! 😭 Posting your first question on Stack Overflow is like walking into a lion's den wearing meat-scented cologne. One minute you're innocently asking why your code won't run, the next you're being eviscerated by keyboard warriors with 500k reputation points who act like you've personally insulted their ancestors by not formatting your code block correctly. These Stack Overflow veterans are just SITTING THERE, fingers hovering over the keyboard, WAITING to type "marked as duplicate" faster than you can say "I'm just a beginner." The emotional damage is so severe you'll find yourself staring blankly into the distance, questioning your entire career choice because you dared to ask about a NullPointerException.

Behold, the Silver Sentinel of StackOverflow! That cold, merciless stare is what every hopeful newbie programmer sees right before their innocent question gets obliterated with "Marked as duplicate" faster than you can say "but my case is different!" These StackOverflow veterans have evolved beyond human compassion. They hover above the digital city like vengeful deities, armed with nothing but their reputation points and an encyclopedic knowledge of questions asked in 2011. Their purpose? To ensure no question shall ever be asked twice in the sacred halls of programmer knowledge. Fun fact: Some say if you whisper "I didn't check existing questions" three times at midnight, this silver figure appears at your desk and forces you to read the entire StackOverflow help center documentation.
