Manual-debugging Memes

You know you've reached peak senior dev status when your team watches you debug like you're defusing a bomb. No fancy IDE features, no AI copilots—just you, a console, and the raw determination to prove you still remember how to code without autocomplete. The collective anxiety is palpable. They're all thinking "please don't break production" while you're manually stepping through code like it's 1995. Meanwhile, you're sweating because you forgot where you put that semicolon and your pride won't let you admit you should probably just use the debugger. Bonus points if you're doing this in prod because "it's just a small fix" and now everyone's Slack status just changed to "watching nervously."
