Emergency-response Memes

Nothing says "Happy Holidays" quite like your production app deciding to throw a tantrum on Christmas Eve while you're three eggnogs deep. Your pager is screaming louder than carolers, and suddenly you're begging the entire dev team to please, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, acknowledge the emergency alert they've been conveniently ignoring while opening presents. Because apparently "on-call rotation" means "everyone pretends their phone died simultaneously." The absolute AUDACITY of code to break during the ONE time of year when nobody wants to touch a keyboard. Bonus points if it's a bug that's been lurking in production for months but chose THIS EXACT MOMENT to make its grand debut.
