How People Write Comments In Code
Nothing captures the absurdity of code comments like this pizza box stating the blindingly obvious. After 15 years of reviewing PRs, I've seen it all—from stating "this increments i" on i++ to documenting that water is wet. Meanwhile, that cryptic 200-line algorithm that actually needs explanation? Zero comments. The real dark magic happens when you revisit your own code six months later and wonder what drugs you were on when writing it. Future you will thank present you for meaningful comments—not for pointing out that a box contains pizza.

Think How Your Future Self Will Feel
Writing code with zero documentation is like putting your future self in a chokehold with a dirty boot. Sure, it feels fast and efficient now—why waste time on tests and comments when you could be "shipping features"? Fast forward six months and there you are, staring at your own cryptic spaghetti code like it's written in hieroglyphics. The boot of regret slowly crushing your soul as you whisper, "Who wrote this garbage? Oh wait... it was me." That's karma in its purest form.

How To Spot An AI Code
OH. MY. GOD. The difference is SENDING ME! 💀 Left side: AI code looking like it's applying for a PhD with its perfectly commented, meticulously structured, memory-checking perfection. Like that one friend who color-coordinates their closet AND alphabetizes their spice rack. Right side: Human programmer's chaotic masterpiece with its cryptic "TODO: More chars" (which will stay there until the heat death of the universe), random variable names, and that absolutely unhinged nested loop that's probably printing ASCII art of their ex's face or something. The true signature of human code isn't elegance—it's the beautiful disaster that somehow still works despite looking like it was written during a caffeine-induced hallucination!

The Art Of Implementation
That moment when your senior dev asks you to implement a shrinking algorithm and you decide to just decrement a counter in a loop. The crying cat perfectly captures the pain of code review day when they see your O(n) solution that could've been a simple one-liner. "It technically works" is your only defense as you prepare to rewrite it for the fifth time.

Comment Slasher: The Horror Movie Of Your Codebase
The AUDACITY of proper multi-line comments when single-line comment spam exists! 💅 Who has time for /* */ when you can just absolutely ASSAULT your code with a barrage of // slashes like you're trying to murder your future self's sanity? Nothing says "I'm a chaotic evil developer" quite like turning your codebase into a slash fiction novel. Single-line comment gang RISE UP! ✊

Commenting Always Works
Ah yes, the ancient debugging technique known as "comment-driven development." Why waste precious brain cells understanding complex logic when you can just play code whack-a-mole? Nothing says "senior developer" like systematically commenting out random chunks of code until your application mysteriously springs back to life. The best part? You'll never know what you actually fixed, preserving that delightful sense of mystery for the next poor soul who inherits your codebase. It's not a bug—it's a feature that keeps future developers employed!

The Bell Curve Of Code Documentation

The Bell Curve Of Code Documentation
The bell curve of programming wisdom strikes again! We've got the rare intellectual specimens on both ends (14%) who actually write meaningful comments to document their thought process, while the mediocre majority (34% + 34%) proudly proclaim "my code is self-documenting!!" with that smug face we all know too well. It's the perfect illustration of the Dunning-Kruger effect in coding practices. The beginners and masters understand the value of good documentation, while the dangerous middle-grounders think their spaghetti mess speaks for itself. Spoiler alert: Future You will have no idea what Past You was thinking when debugging at 2 AM six months from now.

The Neat Part About Code Amnesia
Junior dev: "How do I remember what my code does?" Senior dev: "That's the neat part. You don't." The true mark of seniority isn't remembering your code—it's embracing the chaos. Documentation? Comments? Those are myths we tell bootcamp grads. Real developers just stare at their own code like it's written in ancient Sumerian and mutter "who wrote this garbage?" before realizing it was themselves, last Tuesday.

The Judgmental PR Reviewer
The judgmental stare of an impala when your code looks like a teenager's diary. That moment when you submit a PR with more emojis than actual logic, and the reviewer's soul visibly leaves their body. The code might run, but at what cost to human dignity? Nothing says "I definitely wrote this myself and didn't use AI" like commenting every line with a different animal emoji and explaining obvious functions with "this makes the thing do the thing." The reviewer isn't mad, just disappointed... and questioning their career choices.

The Code Is Documentation Enough
Just like vampires hiss at sunlight and Superman cowers from kryptonite, programmers have developed an evolutionary defense mechanism against documentation. "Why waste time writing docs when the code is right there?" we say, while secretly knowing our variable named temp_var_final_v2_ACTUAL tells absolutely no story whatsoever. Future maintainers will just have to develop telepathy or join the growing support group of developers who cry in server rooms.

The Documentation Transformation Phenomenon
The sudden transformation from feral cave dweller to corporate documentation champion is truly a sight to behold. When no one's watching, we're all just throwing variables together like a toddler making soup. But the moment someone peers over our shoulder, suddenly we're writing comments that would make an academic thesis look underdeveloped. It's like how you instantly clean your room when guests announce they're coming over. Nothing motivates proper documentation like the fear of another human witnessing your coding barbarism. The psychological phenomenon of "perceived professional competence" in its natural habitat.

World Where JSON Allows Comments
The MYTHICAL PARADISE we've never experienced! A world where JSON actually allows comments?! The AUDACITY of this fantasy! Developers everywhere are SOBBING at the mere thought of being able to document their JSON without resorting to ridiculous workarounds or separate documentation files. The dolphins are jumping for joy because they're the only creatures blessed enough to live in this imaginary utopia where you don't have to strip comments before parsing or explain to your coworkers why their perfectly reasonable // explanation broke the entire application. Pure. Fictional. Bliss.
