Do You Recognize The Game?

Every developer has that one side project sitting in their repository with 97 unused dependencies, functions that "might be useful someday," and enough commented-out code to write a novel. You tell yourself you'll clean it up before deployment, but deep down you know those unused imports are going to production. The Chad developer just ships it anyway because "premature optimization is the root of all evil," right? Meanwhile, the perfectionist is having a meltdown trying to decide if they should refactor now or let future-them deal with the technical debt. Spoiler alert: future-you will also choose "later."

Code Hoarding

Ah, the digital equivalent of sweeping dust under the rug. Nothing says "job security" like maintaining a codebase where 60% is commented-out functions nobody dares to touch. The irony of having a function called getKeywords while half the actual keywords function is commented out is just *chef's kiss*. Future archaeologists will study these code fossils and wonder if we were preserving ancient artifacts or just too scared to hit the delete key.
