Hooks Memes

THE ABSOLUTE HORROR of returning to the prehistoric coding wasteland! After years of being coddled by frameworks with their fancy useEffect, useState, and useWhateverYouWant hooks, you're suddenly thrust back into the Stone Age of web development. It's like being forced to hunt your own food after living at a 5-star resort! Your fingers, once dancing gracefully across custom hooks, now trembling as they type out raw JavaScript like some kind of ANIMAL. The AUDACITY of having to manually manage DOM updates! The INDIGNITY of writing more than three lines of code to handle a simple state change! I'm getting heart palpitations just THINKING about it! 💀

Converting a simple 600-line form to React Hooks is the programming equivalent of opening a small kitchen drawer only to find yourself in a calculus fever dream. What should have been a quick refactor turns into a day-long mental breakdown where you question every life decision that led you to becoming a developer. Those floating math equations aren't just for show—they're the actual thoughts racing through your brain as you try to figure out why your useEffect is firing seventeen times and your state management resembles a plate of spaghetti thrown at the wall.

STOP THE MADNESS! React developers have officially lost their minds with this absurd syntax from the "future." The code using use = useUsing("using") is like the JavaScript equivalent of saying "Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo" but somehow WORSE! 💀 React hooks were already confusing enough with their useState , useEffect , useContext , useReducer , useMemo , useCallback , useRef , and now they're just trolling us with useUsing ?! Is this what we've come to? Next they'll release useUseUsingUsedUses and expect us to keep our sanity!

The perfect fusion of React hooks and nuclear physics! The top panel shows our cool developer initializing a state with useState(0) - calm, collected, sunglasses on. But the bottom panel reveals what happens next: useEffect incrementing that counter and BOOM - nuclear chain reaction begins! Just like in a reactor, one small state change triggers an endless loop of updates, causing your app to melt down faster than Chernobyl. This is why senior devs sweat profusely when junior devs forget dependency arrays. Pure computational fission!
