Add Capsule Collider
Game developers know the pain! The guy is happily riding his bike with a stick, then suddenly the stick passes through his body like a ghost because—surprise—no collision detection! In Unity and other game engines, forgetting to add a capsule collider is basically inviting physics to take a vacation. That stick should've bonked him on the head, but instead, it's phasing through him like it's quantum tunneling. Every game dev has had that moment of "why isn't this object interacting with anything?!" only to realize they forgot the most basic component.

The Signature Look Of Programmer Superiority
That smug feeling when a non-programmer is absolutely blown away by a game glitch you could fix with a single if-statement. Sure, let them think you're some kind of wizard for understanding that the collision detection just needed a simple boundary check. Meanwhile, you're sitting there knowing it's basically the "Hello World" of game development fixes. The superiority is just *chef's kiss* delicious.

Trolling Future Self With Commits
The evolution of commit messages is the programmer's descent into madness. First panel: "Bugfix" - the bare minimum effort when you just want to go home. Second panel: "102: Fixed double-jump" - slightly better, at least there's a ticket number. Third panel: "fix: double-jump bug in PlayerController; resolves issue #102" - the brief moment of professionalism when you think someone might actually read your commits. Fourth panel: "Lots of changes lol; Fixed low key sus double-jump yeeting players off map; also fire refactor of all movement physics fr" - the complete breakdown where you're mixing conventional commits with stream-of-consciousness ramblings and Gen Z slang. This is what happens at 3 AM when you've been debugging the same issue since yesterday and your brain is running on energy drinks and spite.
