Code burnout Memes

The evolutionary timeline of every software developer's soul, as told by SpongeBob characters. First comes Patrick—blissfully ignorant, writing spaghetti code and thinking "it works on my machine" is a valid defense. Then SpongeBob—bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, reading documentation, following best practices, and believing deadlines are realistic concepts. Finally, Squidward—the battle-hardened veteran who's seen too many legacy codebases, survived too many midnight deployments, and realized that every elegant solution today becomes tomorrow's technical debt. The transformation isn't a question of if, but when. Your optimism has an expiration date, and it's probably your next sprint planning meeting.
