Sudo: Ultimate Power Escalation
Regular users jog casually. Administrators sprint in business attire. But sudo users? They summon an army of samurai warriors in a mythical apocalyptic landscape. The escalation of power is real. One minute you're politely asking the system for permission, the next you're a digital warlord commanding kernel-level forces. With great power comes exactly zero responsibility.

When The Final Boss Has No Answers
That moment when you've spent hours banging your head against a gnarly bug, finally swallow your pride and escalate to the all-knowing software architect... only to watch them stare blankly at your code like a sasquatch contemplating the meaning of existence. Nothing quite matches the existential dread of realizing the final boss of your engineering hierarchy is just as clueless as you are. Time to update the resume or embrace the chaos and start randomly changing variables until something works!

Thank Him For That
The debugging escalation hierarchy in its final form! First, you bother your friend who's just trying to code in peace. Then you post on StackOverflow and get roasted for not providing a minimal reproducible example. But the GALAXY BRAIN move? Tweeting directly at Brendan Eich—the literal creator of JavaScript—about your broken script tag. And what does the legend do? Simply replies "Show the html please." Not "Do you know who I am?!" Just calmly asking for the code like a regular dev helping out. The absolute chad of programming language creators just casually debugging your homework on Twitter.
