The Four Horsemen Of Programming Reality
The four horsemen of programming reality: what people think (hardware surgery), what parents think (rocket science), what you think (complex algorithms), and what you actually do (Googling "How to use dates in Javascript" for the 47th time this week). Nothing says "senior developer with 10 years experience" quite like having absolutely no idea how to handle dates without checking Stack Overflow first. It's not impostor syndrome if we're all impostors.

Excel Logic (Now With 100% Less AI!)
While humans debate philosophical perspectives on water glasses, Excel is over there screaming "FEBRUARY 1st!!!" because it thinks the 1st of February is somehow more exciting than New Year's. Classic Excel—where dates are stored as serial numbers since 1900, and February 1st is literally just the number 32. No nuance, no philosophy, just pure, unbridled enthusiasm for being exactly one month into the year. It's the spreadsheet equivalent of that coworker who celebrates their "half-birthday" with the same energy as their actual birthday.

Excel Logic: Where Everything Becomes A Date
While philosophers debate whether the glass is half empty or half full, Excel is over here interpreting your liquid level as a date because why not? This perfectly captures Excel's notorious habit of converting anything remotely numeric into dates whether you want it to or not. Type "1/2" meaning one-half? Nope, that's January 2nd now. Your simple fraction? Sorry, it's February 1st. The eternal struggle of every data analyst who's ever screamed at their screen: "NO EXCEL, THAT'S NOT A DATE!"
