Code review Memes

That desperate look when you're silently begging your coworker to review your monolithic PR because you've gone rogue and changed half the codebase in one commit. We all know the best practice is small, incremental changes, but some days you wake up and choose violence. Your team's Slack is suddenly silent, senior devs are "in meetings" all day, and you're left with that 200-file monster that started as "just a quick refactor." Good luck explaining those 8,000 lines of changes in the standup tomorrow!

That suspicious side-eye moment when your coworker who normally submits PRs titled "fixed stuff" with zero comments suddenly delivers a masterpiece of documentation. Either they've been replaced by an AI, they're interviewing elsewhere, or management finally threatened to fire them. Nobody transforms into a model contributor overnight without ulterior motives. Trust issues activated.

Nothing strikes fear into a developer's heart quite like asking colleagues to review code. The bear in this meme represents that senior dev who's been "too busy" to look at your PR for two weeks straight. The title "LGTM" (Looks Good To Me) is the holy grail response we all want but rarely get without 47 nitpicky comments about your variable naming conventions. The survival strategy works both in forests and open office plans - just ask someone who wants to avoid you to do something for you, and watch them magically disappear faster than documentation during a deadline crunch.

Running git blame to find out who wrote that questionable code only to discover it was you all along. That moment when your past self sabotages your present self. The ultimate betrayal isn't from your coworkers—it's from the idiot who had your keyboard six months ago. Pro tip: write better commit messages than "fixed stuff" so future-you has some warning before the unmasking.
