Please Help I Don't Want Snake

Please Help I Don't Want Snake
THE AUDACITY! Some poor soul is having a COMPLETE MELTDOWN because their computer is demanding they adopt a LITERAL REPTILE! ๐Ÿ This tech support conversation is the EPITOME of miscommunication between non-programmers and the technical world. Our tragically confused user thinks they need an ACTUAL SNAKE to run their program, when it's just Python - you know, that programming language named after Monty Python (not the slithery beast)! I'm DYING at the tech support person slowly realizing they're dealing with the most spectacular misunderstanding in coding history. The dramatic irony is just *chef's kiss* PERFECTION!

The Tech Support Nightmare

The Tech Support Nightmare
The eternal tech support nightmare captured in six panels. Non-technical person asks if you're "good with computers," then immediately demands impossible magic like putting MP3s in a watch and talk radio with Frank Sinatra. When you try explaining the technical limitations, they just scream "DRAG AND DROP! DRAG AND DROP!" as if that's the universal solution to all computing problems. The perfect encapsulation of why programmers develop eye twitches when relatives call for "quick computer help."

Lines Of Code Vs. Instructions: The Great Translation

Lines Of Code Vs. Instructions: The Great Translation
The eternal perspective gap between developers and normal humans. Developer is thrilled about 10,000 lines of code while the non-coder is impressed by "10,000 instructions." Neither understands why the other cares, but they're both smiling by the end because sometimes it's easier to pretend you're on the same page than explain why your HTML div tag is actually a work of art.
