Developer health Memes

The duality of a developer's existence laid bare. Spend 8 hours hunched over a keyboard like a gargoyle with deteriorating posture, complaining about back pain and needing a standing desk requisition form... then somehow manage to sit perfectly still for a 12-hour gaming marathon without a single bathroom break. The human body is remarkably selective about what activities it considers "painful." It's almost like our spines have a special agreement with Steam: "Oh, this isn't work? Carry on then!"

This meme hits way too close to home for anyone who's spent long hours coding! The raccoon sitting at a computer desk with the caption "All I wanted was happiness. Back pain is what I got" perfectly captures the physical toll of the programming lifestyle. It's that classic programmer experience - you start your career with dreams of building amazing software and solving cool problems, but end up with a permanent slouch and a collection of ergonomic accessories that never quite fix the problem. The title "averageProgrammerExperience" is spot on because this is basically the universal programmer journey. We all begin excited about creating things and end up Googling "how to fix programmer posture" at 2 AM while rubbing our aching backs. The raccoon is a nice touch too - nocturnal creatures who often look tired and have those dark circles around their eyes... just like programmers after a debugging marathon!
