The Ternary Operator Fever Dream
This code is what happens when someone discovers nested ternary operators and thinks they've unlocked godmode. The developer is trying to add the correct suffix to a date (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.) with a chain of ternaries that would make even Satan say "that's a bit excessive." The best part? It completely ignores 4-20, 24-30, and anything else ending with those numbers. Enjoy debugging this masterpiece when it breaks on the 4th of literally any month! Future maintainers will be adding this developer to their prayer lists tonight.

Excel's February Existential Crisis
The philosophical debate about half-empty vs half-full glasses PALES in comparison to the absolute EXISTENTIAL CRISIS that is February in Excel! While mere mortals contemplate optimism and pessimism, spreadsheet warriors are battling the UNHOLY TERROR of Excel thinking February 1st deserves MULTIPLE EXCLAMATION MARKS!!! Why? Because Excel is DRAMATICALLY SCREAMING about the shortest month like it's the apocalypse while your date formatting slowly crumbles into chaos. The spreadsheet doesn't care about your glass - it's too busy having a complete meltdown over 28 days of pure calendar ANARCHY!

Programmers In The Future
THE AUDACITY OF OUR ANCESTORS! 8000 years in the future and we're STILL cleaning up their 4-digit year mess?! 💀 First it was Y2K, now it's Y10K, because apparently storing years as "9999" seemed like SUCH a brilliant idea. The entire galaxy is running on legacy code written by caffeine-addicted devs who couldn't imagine humanity surviving this long! Now we've got to update TRILLIONS of systems while aliens are probably laughing at us. "Most advanced species in the universe" my keyboard! History's greatest tragedy isn't war or famine—it's inadequate date formatting!

Golang Date Format: The Executive Order
Ah, Golang's date formatting—the language where someone thought, "You know what developers need? More cognitive load!" Instead of using sensible formats like everyone else, Go decided that the reference date January 2, 2006 at 3:04:05 PM MST (01/02 03:04:05PM '06 -0700) would be their magic template. Want to format a date? Just remember which parts of this specific moment in time to use! It's like having to recite a magic incantation every time you need to print a simple timestamp. Seven years into using Go and I still have to Google this nonsense every single time.
