My Colleague Doesn't Like His Own Spaghetti Functions
Someone's had enough of the 3000-line function that calculates tax, sends emails, updates databases, and makes coffee all in one go. Nothing says "I've reached my breaking point" like passive-aggressive office notes taped to the wall. Single responsibility principle isn't just good practice—it's apparently grounds for workplace violence if ignored. The colleague who wrote this has definitely muttered "what the hell does this even do?" while scrolling through functions named 'processData' at 2 AM.

The Anon Design Pattern
The meme shows John Carmack (legendary DOOM creator) wearing an Oculus VR headset with a valve on his glasses, while someone mocks his C programming style. What they don't realize is that Carmack's procedural "functions only" approach created one of the most influential games ever while modern devs are still arguing about design patterns and class hierarchies. Sure, laugh at the lack of OOP while he's over there revolutionizing an entire industry with "just functions." Classic case of a junior dev criticizing senior code they don't understand yet.

I Like My Fun Main Args String
Ah, the classic programming love story that was doomed from the start. She returns values, he doesn't return anything – basically the relationship equivalent of sending texts and getting left on read. The compiler warned him they were incompatible, but he disabled warnings with -w and compiled anyway. Their entire relationship was just her waiting for him to return something meaningful while he just... existed. And people wonder why programmers have commitment issues.

The Uncalled Function Mystery
Spent 45 minutes debugging a function that wasn't returning a value, only to realize I never actually called the function in the first place. That moment of realization hits like a ton of bricks—you go from frantically searching for complex bugs to discovering you're the bug. It's like building an entire spaceship and forgetting to press the launch button. The compiler's just sitting there thinking, "I can't believe this human has a CS degree."

Devs Structurizing Their Code
Ah yes, the classic "let me massively over-engineer this simple problem" approach. Nothing says "I'm a serious developer" like creating an entire utils file just to house that one sad, lonely function that converts a string to uppercase. It's like buying a mansion for your pet rock. Sure, your code structure might look impressive in the pull request, but we all know you're just trying to make those 3 lines of code feel important.

Ah, the eternal civil war among programmers trying to get the size of something. Is it count() ? size() ? length ? sizeof() ? len() ? Every damn language and library decided to pick their own favorite, and now we're all just Spider-Men pointing at each other in confusion. Nothing says "I'm a seasoned developer" like muscle memory making you type the wrong size function in every language and then cursing under your breath when the IDE throws a red squiggly line. Consistency? In programming? That's a good joke!
