If statements Memes

When your junior dev asks "What's the modulo operator?" and you're too deep into your fifth coffee to explain basic math. Nothing says "I'm a professional" like hardcoding 50 if-statements to check if a number is even when return number % 2 == 0; would do the trick. But hey, at least it's thoroughly tested for numbers 1-22! The face in the corner is all of us reviewing this code during a PR. Silent horror.

Ah, the classic "checking if a number is even" function written by someone who clearly slept through the modulo operator lesson. Instead of the simple return number % 2 == 0 , this poor soul is writing out every possible case until they presumably die of old age around number 2,147,483,647. This is the programming equivalent of digging a tunnel with a spoon when there's a perfectly good excavator sitting right there. The desperate tweet above the code says it all - there IS an easier way, buddy. There always is.

The horrified expression of the Senior Developer looking at the Junior Dev's code is priceless! That moment when you ask what's in their codebase and they casually reply "A smoothie" while sitting next to a monstrosity of deeply nested if statements is peak software engineering trauma. It's like opening someone's function and finding a 12-level deep conditional hell where each branch leads to another dimension of logic spaghetti. The Junior Dev has no idea they've created an eldritch horror that will summon the debugging gods at 2AM during production. Meanwhile, the ostrich perfectly represents the code review process - just stick your head in the sand and pretend you didn't see those 17 nested conditionals that could be replaced with a simple switch statement!
