Hieroglyphics Memes

Oh. My. GOD. Trying to debug regex is LITERALLY like being an archaeologist deciphering ancient hieroglyphics with nothing but a magnifying glass and shattered dreams! You're squinting at a wall of cryptic symbols that might as well be alien transmissions, desperately trying to figure out why your pattern matches "hotdog" but not "hot dog" while slowly losing your will to live. And just when you think you've solved it? SURPRISE! It breaks in 17 new mysterious ways! The ancient Egyptians probably had an easier time communicating than developers trying to understand their own regex from last week. 🔍😭

Oh. My. GOD. Trying to debug a regex pattern is LITERALLY like being an archaeologist deciphering ancient hieroglyphics with nothing but a magnifying glass and shattered dreams! You're squinting at a wall of mystical symbols like ^(?:([A-Z])(?![A-Z])|[a-z])+$ wondering what ancient deity you offended to deserve this punishment. One wrong character and your entire application implodes into a black hole of despair. And the worst part? When you finally figure it out, you'll have absolutely NO IDEA how you did it! Future you will look at that regex and weep uncontrollably.

Looking at your two-week-old code like it's ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics is the universal developer experience. The mental gymnastics of trying to decode what past-you was thinking is harder than solving the actual bug. Your brain frantically searches for memories: "Did I write this during that energy drink bender?" No documentation, no comments—just mysterious symbols that might as well be instructions for building a pyramid. Future tip: Comment your code or prepare for archaeological expeditions into your own creation.
