THE AUDACITY! Someone claiming they're "self-taught" while Google, YouTube, and Quora are literally standing RIGHT THERE like disappointed parents who did ALL the heavy lifting! 💀 Honey, you didn't learn programming "on your own" - you had three digital sugar daddies feeding you every single line of code! That's like saying you invented the sandwich when all you did was unwrap one from the store. The DRAMA of it all!

I Owe My Degree To Them

I Owe My Degree To Them
Four years of university education reduced to watching obscure Indian coding tutorials at 2 AM. The foundation of that prestigious degree? Some guy named Rajesh explaining bubble sort in a dimly lit room with a $12 microphone. The university charged $40,000 for what this hero delivered for free. Academia's best-kept secret is that we're all just stackoverflow copypasta with student debt.

The Four Pillars Of Programming Knowledge

The Four Pillars Of Programming Knowledge
The four horsemen of learning to code! On one side, you've got the lonely programmer figuring things out through trial, error, and tears. On the other side, the holy trinity that actually makes it possible: Stack Overflow (where code goes to be judged), W3Schools (the digital textbook we pretend to read), Indian YouTube tutorials (the true heroes who explain everything at 0.75x speed), and coffee (the magical liquid that converts caffeine into code). Let's be honest, without these four pillars, most of us would still be trying to center a div.

The CS Degree Path Of Least Resistance

The CS Degree Path Of Least Resistance
The career progression of a CS grad who never quite made it. Algorithms? Blank stare. Database systems? Dead inside. But show them a joke about semicolons and suddenly they're a technical genius. It's the programming equivalent of only understanding sports through memes about referees being blind.

Roadmaps Are A Scam

Roadmaps Are A Scam
Initially excited to help a coding newbie until they mention the dreaded R-word! Those 17-step "Frontend Roadmaps" with 47 frameworks, 23 build tools, and an arbitrary timeline that makes you question your life choices. Real devs know the truth: you learn by building stuff and Googling errors until 4am, not by following some color-coded flowchart that'll be obsolete before you finish reading it. The only accurate roadmap is: 1) Build something 2) Break it 3) Fix it 4) Repeat until employed.

I Work Harder Not Smarter

I Work Harder Not Smarter
Why learn just enough Python to fix your broken script when you can have a COMPLETE MENTAL BREAKDOWN learning an entirely new programming language in a week?! 😩 The sheer AUDACITY of developers who would rather rewrite their entire codebase than spend 15 minutes on Stack Overflow! It's not procrastination, it's called "expanding your skill set" and it's TOTALLY reasonable to learn Rust from scratch instead of debugging that one pesky line of code. Pure chaotic genius or absolute madness? You decide! (But we all know it's madness.)

Deport All Foreign Keys

Deport All Foreign Keys
Why actually learn SQL when you can just insult everyone else's intelligence instead? The classic developer shortcut: when in doubt, blame others! Nothing says "I'm totally competent" like calling database experts names while secretly Googling "what is a JOIN statement" for the fifth time today. The true mark of a 10x developer is their ability to deflect, not their ability to query.

The Daily Wtf Should Be Required Reading

The Daily Wtf Should Be Required Reading
Oh snap! Schools teaching algorithms: "Here's how to sort data in O(n log n) time!" Meanwhile, real-world coding disasters are where the ACTUAL education happens! 😂 Why waste time on theory when we could be learning from that one dev who deleted production with a single command? The Daily WTF chronicles are basically the sacred texts of "what NOT to do" and honestly should replace half the CS curriculum. Nothing teaches faster than witnessing someone else's spectacular coding train wreck!

Learn From Mistakes

Learn From Mistakes
Nothing teaches you like a production server on fire at 2 AM. That tiny stack of theory books? That's your CS degree. The practice pile? That's your first year on the job. But that towering monument of green books? That's the knowledge you've gained by accidentally dropping the production database, pushing to main on Friday, or forgetting that arrays start at zero for the 500th time. The most valuable developer skills aren't taught in bootcamps—they're forged in the flames of catastrophic failure. My resume says "10 years of experience" but it should really say "10 years of increasingly spectacular mistakes."

Coding Is Like A Piano (That's Literally On Fire)

Coding Is Like A Piano (That's Literally On Fire)
Oh honey, they said "coding is like a piano, you just need to learn how to use it" and CONVENIENTLY forgot to mention the part where the piano is ON FIRE, the sheet music is written in hieroglyphics, and someone keeps changing the laws of physics every time you press a key! 🔥 Sure, learning to code is "just like" learning an instrument—if that instrument occasionally EXPLODES when you hit the wrong note and the only instruction manual was written by someone who clearly hates you personally!

The Only Coding Advice You'll Ever Need

The Only Coding Advice You'll Ever Need
When you pick up a book called "HOW TO GET BETTER AT CODING" but it just says "CODE MORE" inside. The brutal simplicity hits hard! Every developer looking for that magic shortcut or elegant algorithm gets slapped with the coding equivalent of "just do more pushups." No fancy frameworks or design patterns—just the cold, hard truth that mastery comes from grinding out more lines of code until your fingers bleed and your dreams are in syntax highlighting.

Yep Again Same Vids

Yep Again Same Vids
Ah yes, the annual January flood of "Learn to Code in 24 Hours" videos that somehow take 3 hours to explain a for loop. The internet's equivalent of gym membership sales after New Year's. Just wait until February when they all mysteriously pivot to crypto tutorials.
