Client-communication Memes

Ah, the eternal programmer's defense mechanism when confronted with the dreaded "it doesn't work" complaint. The meme perfectly captures the four horsemen of developer excuses: A) "Somebody must have changed my code" - The classic blame deflection. Because obviously your immaculate code couldn't possibly have bugs. B) "I haven't touched the code in weeks!" - The temporal defense. If it was working before and you haven't touched it, clearly the bug must have spontaneously generated itself. Quantum computing at its finest. C) "It worked yesterday" - The mysterious overnight code degradation excuse. As if code has an expiration date like milk. D) "It works on my machine ¯\_(ツ)_/¯" - The ultimate programmer's shrug. Not my problem if your environment can't handle my brilliance. Meanwhile, the cat's smug expression says it all - we know we're full of it, but we'll never admit that our code might actually be the problem. Time to suggest they restart their computer and pray the problem magically disappears!
