Hofstadter's law Memes

The AUDACITY of developer time estimates! 💅 First we're all rainbow-haired confidence: "EOD? EASY PEASY!" Then reality slaps us with clown makeup as our estimates spiral from "just a week" to "umm, two weeks?" until finally we're standing there bare-faced, dead inside, admitting "this monstrosity needs TWO MONTHS." The makeup removal process is basically just our souls leaving our bodies with each passing deadline. It's the software development circle of life - start as a unicorn, end as a corpse. Hofstadter's Law in full technicolor glory!
