Language quirks Memes

JavaScript's type coercion strikes again! In JS, NaN (Not a Number) is technically categorized as a "number" type. Check it yourself with typeof NaN and watch your sanity slowly dissolve. It's like labeling a vegetarian restaurant "meat" because it's a food-related establishment. The wide-eyed shock on that cat's face perfectly represents every developer's reaction when discovering this cosmic joke buried in the language spec. The ECMAScript committee is probably still giggling about this one.

The stick figure enthusiastically declares JavaScript as their favorite language, only to reveal why: JavaScript's infamous type coercion turns "11" + 1 into "111" (string concatenation) but "11" - 1 into 10 (numeric subtraction). This is the programming equivalent of falling in love with someone for their most chaotic trait. It's like saying "I adore this person because they alphabetize their bookshelf but organize their fridge by color." The drunk character in the corner just watching this madness unfold is every senior developer who's been burned by these quirks but has Stockholm syndrome at this point.

The AUDACITY of JavaScript haters when Lua developers are RIGHT THERE! 😱 Lua devs sitting in the corner with their 1-indexed arrays and "nil" instead of null, nervously sweating and praying nobody notices their quirks while everyone's busy roasting JavaScript. It's like watching someone get away with murder while the cops are distracted by a jaywalker. The side-eye is INTENSE because honey, when your language is primarily known for Roblox and WoW addons, maybe don't throw stones from your glass gaming engine!

The existential crisis of JavaScript in two panels. Top: sad face, "Nobody understands me." Bottom: sudden realization, "Maybe I'm JavaScript." JavaScript: the only language where [] == ![] is true, typeof NaN is "number", and adding arrays gives you strings. No wonder therapists refuse to take JS as a client – its issues are beyond professional help.

JavaScript: "NaN stands for 'Not A Number'" Also JavaScript: typeof NaN returns 'number' This is peak JavaScript energy right here. The language literally created a special value to tell you something isn't a number, then categorized it as a number. It's like labeling a vegetarian dish "Contains No Meat" and listing the first ingredient as beef. Just another day in JS wonderland where nothing makes sense and we're all pretending it's fine.
