How Explicit Are You

When someone asks how explicit you are with your variable declarations and you respond by declaring a constant integer named FIVE with the value 5... *chef's kiss* 💋 The sheer redundancy! The beautiful, unnecessary verbosity! Why use implicit typing when you can spell out EVERY. SINGLE. DETAIL? It's like writing a novel when a tweet would do, but honestly? The contemplative dog staring into the sunset really captures the existential weight of this life choice. Some people write `const FIVE = 5`, others write `let x = 5`, but you? You're out here declaring `const int FIVE = 5` like you're documenting the laws of mathematics itself. Absolute legend behavior.

Thanks I Hate Variable Variables

JavaScript developers really woke up one day and said "Let's create four different ways to declare variables, each with subtly different rules that will absolutely destroy newcomers' sanity." And then they had the audacity to add const const which is technically valid syntax. The real horror is that last example where var var lets you mutate your string into whatever Lovecraftian nightmare you want. No wonder half of Stack Overflow is just people asking "why doesn't my variable work?" Ten years of experience and I still occasionally get bitten by this nonsense.

Yesterday I Discovered The Mutable Keyword

15 years of C++ experience and just discovered mutable ? That's like being a plumber for decades and suddenly finding out toilets have a flush mechanism. The cat's face in the last panel is the universal expression of "I've been using const_cast this whole time for nothing." Nothing quite says "expert" like realizing fundamental language features have been hiding in plain sight since 1998.

Recipe For Disaster

Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should . This code is the programming equivalent of naming your twins "Twin1" and "Twin2" then wondering why they need therapy. Using keywords as variable names, declaring const const , setting 5 = 4 , and claiming 2 + 2 === 5 is true? This isn't just cursed code—it's the kind of abomination that makes senior devs wake up in cold sweats. Future maintainers will hunt you down. Not to ask questions, but for revenge.
