Pandemic Memes

When the world shut down and everyone was forced to stay home, normal people suffered while programmers just kept living their best lives. Turns out our natural habitat of dimly lit rooms, minimal human contact, and food delivery was suddenly government-mandated. The pandemic basically validated our lifestyle choices. Finally, society acknowledged what we knew all along – pants are optional when your webcam is pointed at your face.

Ah, COVID lockdown rules: a nightmare for extroverts, but absolute paradise for us code monkeys. While normal humans were suffering through isolation like it was some cruel punishment, programmers were living their best lives – finally validated for the lifestyle we'd been practicing for years. No need to make excuses for staying home all weekend with your IDE when the government mandates it. The only difference? We could order takeout without that judgmental look from the delivery person. Introverted developers have been training for this moment our entire careers.

Lockdown rules: "Don't travel, don't socialize, stay inside." Regular humans: *suffering in agony* Programmers: *laughing maniacally* "You mean I've been training for this my entire career?" Let's be honest—social distancing is just the government officially endorsing our preferred lifestyle. Finally, a pandemic that validates our choice to stay up until 4 AM coding instead of going to parties! The only difference is now we have an excuse our relatives actually accept.
