Getters-setters Memes

Oh, the absolute TRAGEDY of encapsulation! Someone made a private Joke object and then had the AUDACITY to provide a public setter method for it. The punchline? You literally can't access the joke directly because it's private, so you genuinely "wouldn't get it." It's a meta-joke about access modifiers that becomes the very thing it describes - an inaccessible joke. The setter is there taunting you like "here, you can SET a new joke, but you'll never GET the original one!" Pure object-oriented poetry wrapped in existential programming humor. Chef's kiss to whoever wrote this because they created a joke that perfectly embodies its own inaccessibility. The irony is *chef's kiss* immaculate.

Junior devs just slapping public int x; everywhere and living their best life. Then someone introduces them to encapsulation and suddenly they're writing getters and setters like they just discovered fire. The fancy suit represents that false sense of sophistication you get from following OOP principles—until you realize you've written 20 lines of boilerplate just to access a single integer. You're now "professionally" doing what you used to do in one line, and deep down you're questioning every life choice that led you here. Sometimes the simple solution was fine. But now you're in too deep to go back. Welcome to enterprise development, where we make everything unnecessarily complicated and call it "best practices."
