The Print Statement Savior
Homer standing proudly in his underwear is the perfect embodiment of that junior dev who just fixed a complex bug with... wait for it... a series of print statements. The dots between "I have solved the" and "problem" represent the trail of desperate debug prints that somehow led to enlightenment. It's the coding equivalent of finding your car keys after tearing apart your entire house. Sure, proper debugging tools exist, but why use those when you can litter your code with print("here1") , print("here2") , and the ever-informative print("WHY GOD WHY") ?

The Devil You Know vs The AI You Don't
The eternal struggle of a desperate coder, captured in one image! On the left, we have LLMs promising to "help with programming questions" but won't actually insult you (how considerate). On the right, StackOverflow boasting it's "accurate" and "used by people who know what they're doing" while flexing knowledge of "even the most obscure languages." It's the perfect illustration of our coding dilemma: get polite, possibly hallucinated answers from an AI that treats you like a fragile child, or brave StackOverflow where your "simple question" will be closed as duplicate, marked as trivial, and someone will suggest you shouldn't be programming at all. Choose your poison!

Makes Sense: The Developer Lifecycle
The real punchline here isn't about actual drugs—it's about the soul-crushing journey from bright-eyed CS graduate to battle-worn developer. That 4.0 GPA means nothing when you're three sprints behind, surviving on caffeine, and debugging legacy code written by someone who clearly hated humanity. The transformation isn't from success to failure—it's from naïve optimism to the thousand-yard stare of someone who's seen one too many production outages at 2AM. Graduation vs five years of "we need this hotfix yesterday."
