Don't Get My Hopes Up

Don't Get My Hopes Up
That brief moment of joy when you find the perfect function in some obscure documentation, only to have your soul crushed in three consecutive stages of despair. First, it's deprecated. Then you discover the docs you're reading are from 2015. And finally, the killing blow - the new API has completely removed that functionality because some architect decided "nobody needs that anymore." Time to cobble together a 47-line workaround that'll haunt your code reviews for years!

Don't You Hate It When That Happens

Don't You Hate It When That Happens
Ah, the classic Teletubbies invasion of your codebase! The meme brilliantly shows how synchronous functions (a through e) work together in harmony, holding hands in a neat little circle. But then that one async function shows up and BOOM – suddenly your clean execution flow is replaced by an army of purple creatures taking over everything. This is basically what happens when you introduce that first async function into your previously synchronous paradise. One minute you're writing nice, predictable code where everything happens in order. The next minute you're dealing with promises, callbacks, race conditions, and wondering why your console is printing results in what seems like a completely random order. And just like Teletubbies, once async enters your codebase, it multiplies uncontrollably until your entire project is saying "Eh-oh" to debugging sanity.

The Return Of Keyboard Dyslexia

The Return Of Keyboard Dyslexia
Ah yes, the sacred programmer ritual of typing "return" correctly on the first try. Top panel: Rejecting the boring, correct "return" keyword like it's some kind of personal insult. Bottom panel: Enthusiastically embracing every possible misspelling—retrun, reunt, reutn, reutnr, erunt—like they're long-lost friends. The true mark of a senior developer isn't knowing design patterns or algorithms—it's how creatively you can butcher simple keywords while typing at 100 WPM with the confidence of someone who definitely didn't just break the entire codebase.

Authenticate The Authentication

Authenticate The Authentication
When your authentication system is so secure, it needs to authenticate itself before authenticating users. That method signature is the programming equivalent of saying "I'm going to need to see some ID for your ID." The poor guy trapped in authentication purgatory is every developer who's had to implement OAuth2 with refresh tokens while their PM keeps asking "why can't users just login with a password?"
